I just changed my license from NC to CA and I was shocked by one of the questions on the test. It basically said "When is it legal to enter the bike lane?" There were three options, two of which were: "Within 200 ft of turning right" and "When there are no bikes present"
I put the answer "when there are no bikes present," which as a bicyclist makes a lot of sense. The correct answer was "within 200 ft of turning right," which is complete and utter bullshit because I got hit by a car less than two weeks prior that entered the bicycle lane to turn right without signaling.
If I could get cars ticketed by taking video of violations I would buy a GoPro camera tomorrow.
