Generally the SF Bay Area is pretty good when it comes to American bike infrastructure but yeah… some of the bullshit on the shoulder is just indefensible.
And people in cars just whizz right by so they aren’t nearly as in tune with the actual conditions.
Don’t get me started on the current Sir Francis Drake to Richmond Bridge route (ride of the freeway shoulder).
A law just passed that motorists must give at least 1 metre of clearance ( measured from most protruding part of car) when passing cyclists and pedestrians on the road, Vancouver, Canada.

Seems like you could just go around these hazards and get back in the shoulder. Cars don’t drive down the middle of the road because sometimes theres pot holes in their lane.
