Cyclists and car drivers sharing the same roads causes some problems. What are the problems and what can be done to reduce them?

Nowadays, it is common for bikers and

car

drivers

to share the same roadway and

this

has caused a number of undesirable consequences.

Thus

, some steps can be taken to mitigate unpleasant situations. To commence,

cyclists

and private

car

drivers

using the same lane when travelling can cause a major problem. The possibility of an accident between a

car

and a bike is much higher when they travel on the same road because automobiles are much larger than

bikes

and they are able to run at a remarkable speed which will certainly kill

cyclists

when colliding.

Moreover

,

car

drivers

will face a lot of inconveniences when bikers are on their road as they can not be able to use the maximum speed to reach their destinations in time when they are late. I would argue that using the same lane gives both

cyclists

and

car

drivers

an uncomfortable and intimidating experience As sharing the same roadway among

cyclists

and private

car

drivers

is dangerous and inconvenient, there are some effective measures for governments to be carried out in order to solve the problems.

First

, on roads which allow both

bikes

and cars, the government should strictly limit the maximum speed of automobiles as low as 50km by giving a minor fine for

drivers

who set in their ways and violate the law.

Secondly

, national authorities should allocate resources to local officials to build separate lanes for both two vehicles which would help reduce significantly the percentage of accidents between bicycles and automobiles and

also

decrease the percentage of mortality as accidents that happened between two

bikes

are much less serious than cars and

bikes

when colliding. In Singapore,

for instance

, most of the streets are divided into two distinct lanes where

car

drivers

and riders can run at their own speed without bothering each other. I would argue that government interference is vital to change the negative direction of the aforementioned situation into a positive one In conclusion,

although

there are a number of issues arising when

cyclists

and

car

drivers

share the same lane , there are some effective steps that government can take to better the circumstances, preventing dire consequences from taking the lives of their citizens
