what this protected libike lan could look like on the promenade. thank you. henry. good evening, everyone. my name is hank coates. i live in the marina district, and for the last 15 years, i ve been biking to my job. i ride along unprotected bike lanes the whole way and that provides to me a false sense of security. why is this the case? because the bike lanes are unprotected, and what s more frightening is the speed limit on the embarcadero is 30 miles an hour and many vehicles on there drive considerably faster, especially in the morning. i think vision zero says you can survive a traffic accident if the speed is 20 miles an hour or less, and i would encourage the city to reduce the speed limit on the embarcadero to 25 or 20 miles an hour. i also find vehicles double parking in the bike lanes for unloading and loading passengers, drivers look at their phones when driving. i haven t seen anything mention that, but the risk that it places bicyclists under. times when i m
