    And where did they say the car drive in the bike lane? They didn’t. This is your narrative.

      Op said they were on a bike. Op said there were two designated bike lanes. Ok said car nearly hit them.

      One of two things must be true.

      Car entered the bike lane. A thing that happens often.

      Op was riding in the traffic lane instead of the two designated bike lanes, then posted about it, and specifically mentioned the two bike lanes they were not using for no reason other than to make themself look bad. A thing that doesn’t happen often.

      You see how short one explanation is compared to the other? Yeah the short explanation is probably what happened. It’s the most likely explanation.

      Op had an option to not be in danger then. They were in the car lane to feel the drama.

      That’s you making a wild leap to blame the bike.

      I’m using what’s called occums razor. Op mentioned the bike lanes. Op didn’t say anything about being in the main road.

      It’s more reasonable to assume they were using the bike lanes they mentioned. It’s unreasonable to assume they were in the road and only mentioned the bike lanes to us in order to make themselves look bad. That doesn’t make sense.
