    Yes, unfortunately so. And it’s been going on a long time…

    Drivers didn’t want to share the road with cyclists. But they also don’t want to lose road-space to cycle-lanes.

    Sabotaging the lanes has been going on a long time, is quite regular, and seems to span a wide area - I expect there are several culprits. I hope someone gets caught… given the levels of frustration I also hope things don’t get ugly when they are caught.

      So, the bike lane gets made. The sunk cost is already gone.

      They throw tacks on the bike lanes because they don’t want to share the road.

      The bike lanes don’t get used, but the space is still gone.

      How do tacks help their cause or is this a “I’m mad and I want other people to suffer” situation?
