Bike Lanes: Good News/Congratulations

I would estimate that at least 50% of Edmonton drivers are unaware of the safety rules and expectations on bike lanes. Bike lanes are new (ish) and people are confused. So, just like in the outside world, the easiest solution to resolving disputes between two reasonable groups is education.

I am very happy to note that the city of Edmonton, that clearly feels the same way, is producing a series of remarkable videos that train people in the "rules of the road" involving bike paths.

Here is the first one.
Bike lanes at Intersections:


Here is one on Bike Boxes. They can be confusing so share the videos:

Here is a second video explaining Bike Boxes. The boxes are a great idea but new to so many people that we need to share this remarkable video with the world.


I can only say Bravo! Edmonton, and the city department in charge of this great idea.

And Bravo!to the creators at Jeff Allen Productions. This LOCAL team and their creativity deserve our accolades.
