Riding in the lane vs on the shoulder Demo video
This is a really well done video of a cyclist riding about 18″ to the left of the white line and then again, riding to the right of the white line.
It is a simple demonstration of how close the cars get to the cyclist in the two situations.
We are hoping to do some on-bike video using the new video camera we just got for my work with the GO MAINE Bike Commuter Education Program and this is on the right track. Many thanks to John Brooking of the Portland Bicycle Meet-Up group for sending it along and suggesting a similar effort based in Portland.
To see the website where it originated, see the links below.
