My cycling commute puts me on 2nd Ave through all of Belltown and downtown and damn have I realized how dangerous it is. I’ve already hit a pedestrian who suddenly stepped into the bike lane (not at a crosswalk) thankfully I wasn’t going too fast so no one was hurt. Today I just witnessed a pedestrian crash on their lime bike and get seriously hurt, ambulance was called. I’ve really realized though that the biggest danger is pedestrians not looking and suddenly stepping into the bike lane, I’ve dodged them multiple times. If you ever cycle or scooter on this street be hyper aware of whats ahead of you because things happen fast.
