On: Self-Driving Ubers Driving in Bike Lanes

Yup. It also:

- Is a signal that the driver intends to turn. Drivers should also be using their actual turn signals, of course, but as a cyclist I would much rather have a driver who fails to signal merge early and turn, rather than turn with no warning. - Allows the cyclist to more easily get around to the left.

And be ran over by a bus. I don’t see how this rule makes anything safer unless cycle traffic completely stops to wait behind the car (not happening).

You can simply slow down, if you are not sure about the safety of this alternative.
