Was visiting a wisconsin town this weekend and observed this nightmare-ish bike lane configuration.. the road’s speed limit is 25mph, but has a massive 500’ acceleration lane. Gonna guess how many people actually obey the speed limit here?

The dashed lines denoting merging across the bike lane are a whopping 482 feet long!

Almost as bad as this nightmare in my town. Another view in this article about the world's worst bike lanes. Nothing has been done about it in years AFAIK.
