In what world is walking on a bike lane (instead of a pedestrian lane immediately to its side) a reasonable way to minimize the chance of collision with a bicycle?
@trinsec I've just had someone literally tell me that she's walking on the bike lane to avoid being hit by a bike, _while acknowledging that it's a bike lane_.
@robryk Oh well, deserves to be hit by a bike then!
That happens too, but then the issue is that they don't realize which side is the bike lane and just need to notice it. I'm dumbfounded by people saying that they'll continue to do something that's against the rules and seems to be harmful for them in this city, where I have a large success rate at e.g. asking drunk people to stop dragging a potted tree away.
@robryk Usually tourists here, who have never seen a bike lane before.
