lanes

The fact is, the United States is effectively guaranteeing the trade lanes for everyone.

Another important factor is how much of an effect 10ft vs 12ft lanes have on motorcycle filtering (lane splitting).

A Houston PD unmarked car cut me off in traffic and I switched lanes to avoid their car.

Most of the people who bike frequently in the city actually avoid the separated bike lanes because of the poor traffic light timing.

We have a nice road with those in NL, it's 5 lanes (where before we had 2) per side, the speed?

It invested deeply in public space, from parks to bike lanes.

I switched lanes to get out of the way, but found myself pulled over instead.

I'd agree with you if you were talking about a pool with swimming lanes.

It is also used to block lanes as needed, e.g.

Nice cycling lanes and impressive statistics, but I don't get the impression that bicycles are as ubiquitous (yet) as they are in Amsterdam.

His excuse is that she fails to signal while switching lanes (to create some distance between them.) He was going to pull her over no matter what.

It was also believed that traffic was a fairly minor infrastructure problem that could easily be resolved by widening the highways, adding a few more lanes here and there.

I was ticketed for "Changing Lanes Not in Safety" by another officer who was following.

The cop kept asking "why did you change lanes like that?" And I kept replying that "you were doing what looked like 90mph coming up behind me, what reasonable person wouldn't?".

But no cop (or few cops) are dumb enough to outright say, "I arrested Mr Foo because he was a mouthy little bastard." Instead, you become just one of the N drivers for whom an expired inspection sticker or failure to stay in marked lanes becomes a citation (and maybe a tow) instead of a warning.
