The other thing that NYC would do well to implement was the so-called "green highway". I bike to work every day and find that our separated bike lanes have longer and more frequent red lights than the lanes given to cars (we have a red light when they have a green light + left turn arrow). Most of the people who bike frequently in the city actually avoid the separated bike lanes because of the poor traffic light timing.
- thefool 17y agoYes, that I think is the best of the social engineering ideas presented in that video, its also one of the easiest for the city to implement in terms of infrastructure. You would make a lot of people mad by doing it though.
- warfangle 17y agoThere's already so much bicycle-hate in this city (mainly towards couriers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmHRnA780WM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmHRnA780WM ), that I can imagine it getting out of hand. Most of the people it would effect are cab drivers/drivers-for-hire and delivery trucks/vans. Everyone else who drives daily in the city is, imho, an asshole ;)
