| 説明 | Relatively new markings that seem to confuse a lot of motorists: this isn't a bike lane -- notice there's no lane striping. It's a "shared lane" marking, or "sharrow." (Share + arrow -- the chevrons over the bicycle show the correct direction for bicycle traffic.)The purpose sharrows is to get cyclists to ride further left, out of the door zone of parked cars, while reminding motorists that cyclists really do belong in the lane, not in the gutter. They also reduce wrong-way cycling -- riding against traffic is dramatically more dangerous than riding with traffic.Unfortunately, Seattle DOT often puts sharrows too far to the right, in the door zone of parked cars. SDOT points to national standards making this the minimum distance left from the curb, apparently a new departmental slogan, "SDOT: The least we can do to comply." |
