"Share the Road" has its own set...@Scott:<br />"Share the Road" has its own set of problems. The wording of it makes the motorist think that the road is his and that he is expected to give some of it up for the benefit of bicyclists, who he doesn't think belong on the road in the first place.<br /><br />It's the same psychology that makes most people dislike taxes.<br /><br />While I am not sure if either of these signs is perfectly clear, they should be more effective. They are more stern and informative, letting the reader know that bicyclists are, in fact, allowed to be on the road. <br /><br />Instead of asking them to share, it lets motorists know that the road belongs to bicyclists as well.Donaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05850621237586891240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301587267512017243.post-53466262882452232362011-01-13T15:40:25.344-08:002011-01-13T15:40:25.344-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Donaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05850621237586891240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301587267512017243.post-29774936384312711532011-01-13T10:33:07.301-08:002011-01-13T10:33:07.301-08:00I prefer the 'Share the Road' signs.

I understand the legal rationale behind the 'full lane' signs but I think they are too hard for your average driver to comprehend.Scottnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7301587267512017243.post-67796778800626351442011-01-13T10:21:28.742-08:002011-01-13T10:21:28.742-08:00I second that...I second that...peepnoreply@blogger.com
