[*BCM*] Stupidest Bike Lane

The only other place in Cambridge that comes close to this level of
danger is Cambridge Street heading out of Inman Square toward the
number streets of East Cambridge. The deadly combination of
double-parked cars, people searching for spots, deliveries, darting
pedestrians, u-turners, and cross-streets without signals make the
bike lane a liability. Cambridge Street boasts my highest close call
per block biked of anywhere I've pedaled. Third-world drivers have
more respect for traffic laws than the massholes of East Cambridge.

Cheers.
