Chicago Bike Lanes (those green painted lines) causing problems. Some drivers not adhering to the rules of the road. One young woman killed recently on her bike in a bike lane there.


I don't know if it's a problem here or not (yet).

But I agree with the Reporter. I don't trust our potholed streets. And also bike lane markings have to be monitored to MAKE SURE that they are visibly visible so that vehicle drivers don't think the bike lane is not a bike lane anymore.

I think things were better before these green painted lines.


Winnipeg doesn't have it as bad as some other places on the globe though:
