My city is full of these Cloverleaf interchanges where cars exiting the freeway are merging into high speed traffic.

So I get to pedal down this road and get sandwiched between buses/trucks on the left and merging cars on the right. Legitimately the worst part of my commute where I might actually die. Fun!

I imagine the road engineers that decide to make this just want to create as many future cyclist deaths as possible.

This is what happens when the city is required to add X miles of bike lanes but they don't really want to, so they throw down some green paint wherever and call it good.
