I didn't see any notice that this jogger was in a bike lane. But certainly joggers, walkers, baby strollers, etc. don't belong in bike lanes, especially on a road where the speed limit is 45 mph. If a jogger is in the bikelane/path(especially if there are 40 of them), where is a bicyclist supposed to ride?
I've come to the opinion that bike lanes are more dangerous than no-bike lanes. They narrow regular lanes, and since everyone that isn't in a car or on a bike thinks it's ok to use the lane, that means bikes and cars get mushed into sharing a smaller area. I've ridden the bike paths/lanes in town. I live on a street with bike lanes, so I know of what I speak. Either abolish bike lanes or ticket non-bikers for using them. We're just allowing people to endanger themselves and others by making such lanes/paths.
