Cartoon: Bill Roundy
We love when our cartoonist, Bill Roundy, gets all metaphorical. But the other day, he found himself sick and tired of hearing politicians misunderstand what a real bike lane and what a fake bike lane is.
A real bike lane has a barrier to prevent (or at least deter) a driver from veering into the cyclist's space. Anything else is just paint on a road.
Which reminded Roundy of another type of safety metaphor (complete with cartoon T-bone).
Enjoy.
