Educating The Public

to the editor:

for what it's worth, here's my vote: bike lanes-good! as a bike rider in the city (some of us cannot afford cars), i appreciate the new (all-too-few) lanes and am looking forward to one on columbus avenue. having lived in amsterdam, i am well aware that you need to educate both drivers and bikers to respect each other. in fact, as part of a driver's training course in holland, you are required to navigate around bicycles and vice versa. that's just common sense.
