Get this all the time near my place, as the bike path crosses the road and I have right away with a”wombat crossing”
I always ensure that they stop before I cross, as a lot of them are on their phones most of the time and others wouldn’t even blink if they were to hit me.
Sounds like my neck of the woods.
Local council has a boner for bike path intersections lately.
They have a checklist which they seem to go through each and every time. Give way sign gets changed to stop sign, gets added speed humps, over the course of a few months.
Never works because you can’t trust it if you’re on the path and because it’s completely counterintuitive to anyone on the road.
Vic councils specialise in stupidity
