Wow, then I don't know how they'd ever expand to NYC.
In most areas there's no such thing as a "safe place" that doesn't block traffic.
If there are sides of the road that aren't traffic (or bicycle) lanes, then they're taken up by parking.
Taxis, Ubers, delivery trucks -- literally everything just stops in the street (or bicycle lane) and traffic temporarily goes around it.
