  And tonight riding east on Pender past Cambie a bus driver
asked why I wasn't in the bike line provided.

  I said just watch, pedalled ahead and at Abbott Street, as 
I had said. two cars tried to a right turn, without signals 
in the dark toward T&T or The Garage, just in front of me coming 
along in the bike lane.

   Thus I told the bus driver, it is safer at that foolish
intersection to be in the "car lane" to cross the street as 
the cars will regard you as a lesser equal driving through
the intersection that a lights, fluorescent vest and stripes
thing on their right view mirror, having passed me on my bike
a few seconds before.

   See also 16th Avenue going east at Dunbar in the dark.
