		<description>The name Light Lane is indicative, I think.  The rider in the video is riding where the bike lane would be if there were one.  I agree, where he chooses to ride is unwise.  There is a perfectly good lane to use.

I think something like this that shows the 3-foot buffer cars should give bikes would be very cool, but I&#039;m afraid it won&#039;t work.  I don&#039;t drive staring at the pavement, and I hope most drivers don&#039;t.

A person on a bike is tall, taller than most passenger cars, and looks distinctively different on the road from a car, especially if they have reflective gear on up high around the shoulders or on the helmet.  I want the motorists eye to see me, not the pavement.</description>

		<description>Keri... You could write their ad copy! :-)

Shek... Yep. Green is the wrong color. Yellow would be better. Still it would be hard to see from a distance.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s a pseudo-safety talisman for gutter bunnies.

&lt;em&gt;Make your own door zone bike lane!

Don&#039;t wait for incompetent facility design to direct you too close to parked cars, strap on these lasers and do it yourself today! Want to make a left turn from the right curb? Bring your own bike lane that does it with you!&lt;/em&gt;

It speaks volumes about our culture that the guy in the video is that clueless.</description>

		<description>Bikejax had a recent post on the light lane. The guy in the video is clearly showing off his lack of proficiency. He even takes a left turn from the right hand side of the lane. 

I have doubts on how visible a light lane would be from a drivers seat. I do like the light lane on my right to properly ride at a safe distance from the curb and parked cars. Sometimes, I tend to get closer to the curb than is safe.</description>
