Valencia (the Main Street of the mission) has had a recent redesign to have a protected bicycle lane down the middle of the road. Think a road with a median, but with only rubber bumpers separating the car and bike lanes.
A few weeks ago a cruise cab stopped on to pick someone up and caused a major traffic back log. The response from the human drivers was to just drive in the bike lane to get around the stopped car.
The future is weird man.
- nzoschke 3y agoI live in outer mission and cycle Valencia street frequently. Valencia is totally jacked for cars now. I’m often speeding down the bike lane past bumper to bumper traffic either direction. If any car stops for pedestrians, passenger pick up or drop off, or even parallel parking in the short term spots it backs the whole lane up. I’m not mad. We should extend the bike lane further up and down the city. And should move towards removing all cars from Valencia. Make it a promenade / city square only for people and bikes.
