Those guys scare the cr at p out of me, particularly in a multilane scenario with the potential for a surprise "quick reveal." However, when I suggested a through lane - bike lane - bollards - onramp cross section for s/b Gilman at I-5, I practically got voted out of SDCBC. :)

with greedy/selfish motorists. Those who intentionally wait until the 
last second to make their illegal (no 100-foot signal, etc)  lane 
change often seem the most annoyed to find me in between them and the 
lane they're trying to get to. I suggest that the redesign should 
encourage earlier choice of lane based on destination, followed by 
physical barricades preventing late changes. Probably at least 300 
feet are needed in case of Pershing/I-5 due to curves and average speed.
