I hate shortened crossings. Pedestrian crossings should follow the flow of pedestrians. Bikes shouldn’t have to slow down to make sharp turns just to cross the street. There should be crossings that go in a sensible line.
Given that’s not the law in my country, I have to assume that it’s your personal opinion. And your personal opinion that I should risk my life just to get to the grocery store is fucked.
I mean, getting hit by a bike hurts, but it doesn’t kill you. Still, I’m not a fan of people endangering and inconveniencing others so they themselves can be safer either. But that’s what people are like. That’s one of the reasons everyone should be pro bike lane, even if they don’t cycle.
I’ve been in cities where the “bike lane” was a “Parked car door zone”
Some of these cities literally made it illegal to not ride in the bike lanes. Not everyone should be pro bike lane, especially when they’re death lanes

Bikes belong in the road.
If you’re in a pedestrian path with a bicycle, you should be dismounted

Your personal opinion is that you should risk the lives of pedestrians by riding a vehicle in their path?
Its not about laws, its about morality.

I meant that as in ‘everyone should be pro creating safe bike lanes’. Sorry I wasn’t clear
