"unsafe for both"? What is the bike going to do to the car? Scratch the paint? Get blood on the tires?
That said, I agree that separated bike infrastructure saves lives and encourages biking by making people feel safer.
Easy enough to imagine a driver (understandably) swerving to avoid killing a cyclist and losing control of the car
Being a shitty driver is indeed unsafe
I agree. As long as there are drivers, there will be shitty drivers, so it's worthwhile to design roads in a way that minimizes the chance that shitty driving will kill people.
