Bad drivers and the bike lanes are very intermittent too. The only road I regularly bike on with a bike lane (I try for smaller roads which aren't deemed busy enough for a bike lane) usually has enough cars parked in the bike lane to make it useless. The bigger bike laned roads I ride on the sidewalk.
