Signs In Bike Lanes Compromise Cyclist Safety
The new roundabout at Cliff Drive and Las Positas is quite popular. Motorists love that traffic moves smoothly with almost no delays.

There’s no need to force cyclists out of the bike lane – it’s not safe.
It’s another case of cyclist safety being compromised for the convenience of motorists.
