Absolutely agree. Bike infrastructure in Germany, especially in German cities is dismal. I’ve been to Talinn, Estonia and saw how things could and should be done, and in comparison, Germany sucks.
Well, and if you’re using a bike for your daily commute, you’ll also be familiar with the mindset of car drivers. You’ll be overtaken far too close and yelled at every day.
In germany, you have traffic lights that give cars green before bicycles finish passing the road.
And also, there’s no darn orange to warn cyclists to stop. You come in at speed and the light just instantly go from green to red.
And on top of that, some bicycle paths just end in a highway with no indication or warning.
