If your roadway is designed so that the average driver only feels comfortable going about 30 km/h / 20 mph, you don't really need to have separate cycle lanes because bikes can match car speed.
- TeMPOraL 2y ago30 km/h is like 10 km/h too fast for a cyclist to comfortably match, unless we restrict mobility only to people for whom cycling is a lifestyle.
- eertami 2y agoYeah standard E-Bikes (without a registration/license plate) are limited to 25km/h here, even with the electronic assist the car is going faster.
- TeMPOraL 2y agoCorrect, and same with e-scooters over where I live, which is how I know that most cyclists ride at about 20 km/h or less - by reading the speedometer while matching speed with a cyclist in front of me.
