That's why we call those type of "bike lanes" a murder strip.
Have them where I live too.
31°57'30"S 115°54'16"E
All around Vic, too. They generally don't even put in a bike lane, just say "use the emergency lane". Here's a sequence of images for one on the freeway in to Melbourne from Ballarat, starting from the onramp:
This whole stretch of freeway is 110 km/h (70mph). There are skid marks where vehicles have bailed out of a failing 110km/h merge.
The shoulder is the emergency lane. It's where drivers pull over into if there's an unavoidable hazard ahead or their brakes are failing or something.
There used to be a sign "helping" cyclists already on the freeway by telling them "cross here with care":
But it was obliterated by a vehicle:
I was looking to find the mangled remains of a cycle embedded in the turf just off the side of one of those images.
I got "Invalid Dynamic Link" on your link.
Same. Not sure what happened there. Have replaced with it's lat long.
Holy shit lmao
4PWQ2WR3+MQ here's a plus code for ye (apparently Google's open-source alternative coordinate thing and their solution to unaddressed areas)
took a lot of training and tests to qualify to drive on roads
Those tests are stupidly easy
Point is having a drivers license does not mean very much about whether you are competent at driving.
Lol. Having a US driving license means you might be qualified to safely ride a tricycle on a training course.
Yo do understand there’s countries outside the US, right? 🤡
Heh. Wishful thinking.
