Are sharrows safe?

It is more fun criticizing






Sharrows.

There is a recent controversy regarding bike lanes in Ayala Makati to be converted into sharrows - ie shared space for mv and cyclists alike.     I think it is unsafe but where the greater good, ie resolving traffic jams is the greater objective why not?

My honest opinion about bike lane is that in Phil or elsewhere in the world, bike lanes have not come of age yet.  In most of the places in the Philippines, it is a fad if not a sham.  

So the advice to fellow cyclists is "kanya kanya".  Ingat lang lagi.
