If you're talking about bike lanes sharing the same asphalt as adjacent general purpose lanes, my experience is absolutely opposite. And contrary to Mr. "sms," my experience seems commons. For example:
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=bike+lane+debris&t=newext&atb=v416-1&iax=images&ia=imagesI don't see how it's possible to have more debris on the portion of road where car tires pass at least occasionally. Each car tire rolls over at least six inches of pavement, and at relatively high speed. Bits of gravel or glass get thrown up and would eventually end up in an adjacent bike lane simply by random chance, even if the car's wind blast didn't add impetus.
