[SDCBC] Joggers in the Bike Lane - WTF

[John Eldon]

I stipulate, from the limited evidence provided, that the motorist fell
asleep at the wheel, rendering the white bike lane stripe irrelevant from
his perspective.

  Good points, Trevor.  Also, if either the jogger or the motorist (or both)
was paying less attention to what was on the other side of the bike lane
stripe because they subconsciously assumed that the stripe would do what it
normally does - keep separated lines of traffic separated - then they would
be paying more attention if the bike lane stripe had not been there, and
perhaps yet another bike lane tragedy (which easily could have involved a
cyclist) could have been avoided.
