    A few observations:

    1. That’s a fuck-ton of distance for 150 cars.
    2. “One more lane, bro” wouldn’t make a goddamn difference.
    3. We really need bike lanes… on every road.

        Those brake lights tell a different story. Still, what are we talking… a 1 or 2 km length of road for 150 cars to be passed by a single cyclist? Such an inefficient use of space.

          Say the cars are 4.5m long each, 150 cars long half a metre between them for 650m, so quite likely 1km given the roughness of my estimates

          True, there’s that one point where the cyclist doesn’t pass any cars because they’re all completely stopped. It’s also true that the rate of passing is completely the same the entire time because all the brake lights are on.
