I couldn't figure out how to edit my comments, but I just re-read the complaint. I don't afree it should be a dashed line due to the large numbr of bikers down here. Is this lane a buffer to stop bikers from getting side swiped?

I have been almost hit by other cars on this corner when attempting to turn right from the eastbound outside lane which is now marked as a through lane and the lane to be used to turn right from. People are so used to pulling to the far right to make their turn so they ignore the street markings. Someone is going to have a really bad accident there. I have been in the proper lane to turn and have had to wait because another car pulls into the bike lane area to the far right to make their turn. Old habits are hard to break. Note: i have never encointered a bike rider and i turn at the intersection several times a day. Please do domething to make this area user friendly for all. Thank you!

I have not seen any action on the traffic issue at MLK and 54th Ave. S. I do agree that the markings are correct. But I also know that the public must not be aware of the traffic laws regarding this type of issue. Yesterday, I was waiting in the east bound outside lane to make my right turn. (Light was red for through traffic). A PTSA bus passed me in the "clearly marrked" bike lane and made its right turn. What a disaster that would have been if I had started to make my right turn (legally) from the outside lane. This happens every time I'm at this corner of the intersection. So now we basically have 2 right turn lanes; one for those of us who respect & obey the law and one for those who are ignorant of the laws or who are just doing what they were used to doing before the lanes were marked this way. If the issue is not corrected Maybe some inforcement in the way of warnings being issued for a 30 day period would help. (After that traffic tickets) I'm just afraid someone will eventually get hurt. When it is dismissal time for Lakewood it is even worse. (I live on 55th Ave & 11th St. And use this route several times a day.) Your answer was really unexceptable and obviously not given any investigation. Maybe your office thinks that this can't be all that bad, but it is that bad. (Ive even had people blow their horn at me to move over into the bike lane,. Really??? Please help!! My next action will be Bay News 9 (Chuck Henson)
