I was going to say, this is almost completely because it's an unprotected bike lane. It's too easy for people to ignore it.

    It’s semi protected by a curb but realistically it’s free game. Communicate a blitz and enforce. Use cameras if they’re reliable (I have my doubts though).

    A proper bike lane that's adjacent to a street or road has curbs or other barricades high enough to ruin the wheels or undercarriage of any vehicle that attempts to drive over it. Semi-protected is not protected.
