I see a sign that suggets that bicyclists can ride
there. I don't see
anything that says you can't ride on the traffic lanes.

The meaning of the round blue sign with a bicycle is
"bicycles must ride
here and nowhere else".

In France, by now they have two different signs:
Square blue sign with white bicycle: Bicycles can ride
here.
Round blue sign with white bicycle: Bicycles *must* ride
here.

(I think at most 5% of the bike lanes in France now have
the square sign).

Thanks for the clarification.

For the record, I oppose any laws that prohibits bicycles

on streets and roads other than limited access highways.

But doesn't the building of bike paths imply that riding
on the
highway is dangerious? And if riding on the road is
dangerious
shouldn't it be banned?

After all, Frankie posted a chart showing numbers killed
by various
weapons mass shootings and after separating the numbers
into those
known to be killed only by "Semi-Automatic Rifle" were
some 118,
while those killed on bicycles in 2022 amounted 1084.

As Frankie feels that killing some 118 with a semi-auto
rifle is
reason to ban the weapons then certainly killing 8 times
that number
with bicycles must be reason to ban there use on highways,
Bicycles and bicycle lanes weren't designed to kill people,
you idiot.

Hmmmm.
Some of those 'death chutes' certainly seem like that.
Well :-} I've never seen the idea toted that automobiles are
"designed to kill people" although they seem to do a pretty good job
of doing so.
