I can understand.
We have some new dedicated cycle lanes in our city (I mean, they are a few years old now. But fairly unique in our country).
I feel bad for the cyclists. They have a dedicated path, which pedestrians are super ignorant of (they are better marked than this picture).
My parents think they are a menace when they visit, because they are unaware of them and get menaced by cyclists.
Except, that’s literally what roads are. They just grew up with roads and (even faster) cars.
So, I am understanding of the transition.
And everyone needs to call everyone out over it. It will make everyone safer
I got pretty heated after an event bicycling home. Pedestrians all ignorant walking on the bike lane. That was fine so long as they moved but someone yelled at me and I very angrily yelled back.
People criticize cyclists in the road, they’d criticize you riding on the sidewalk (rightly so), but when we have a dedicated bike lane they walk all over it and act like you’re the asshole.
