Response to Current Event

This video shows the ups and downs to having bicycle lanes in the busy city with many cars and fast flowing streets. Some of the people in the news clip were stating things such as "...death or injury waiting to happen." and how dangerous it is to create a bike lane on such a busy street. I disagree with these opinions. It doesn't make sense for people to think that bike lanes will create more injuries. With new bike lanes, a safer environment is created. Without bike lanes, bikers would not have an option to ride on certain streets. And if they did ride on those streets, it would be very difficult, and much more dangerous than if there were bike lanes for them to use.
