The green color provides a reminder to motorists to look for bicyclists when crossing E Johnson or making a left turn at Pinckney Street, and a reminder to bicyclists to watch for these conflicts as well.
What I get when I see pavement coloured for bicycles is a sense of self-righteous entitlement rather than a sense that my own caution is indicated. That might be due to my own pre-teen emotional age (yes, I am aware)-- but assuming others share that mentality-- and I think some do-- it's worrisome to think that some of the equation could work *against* safety. Maybe red is a better choice than green after all.
Please excuse me if I over-share. -- S. Morris Rose Vancouver, BC _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org
