Front Street bike lane is dangerous

Published 9:06 am Tuesday, August 23, 2011

The bike lane has proven to be extremely dangerous and hazardous to both the bicycle rider and the drivers of the passerby vehicles. Children need to watch where they’re going, and what they’re doing on a very busy roadway.

On Friday, while traveling west on Front Street, a young boy, not watching what he was doing, ran into the back side of my vehicle, after I slowly passed him, and he was out of my sight. Who is responsible for what took place? This bike lane must be reserved for responsible patrons, or someone will definitely get hurt!
