It looks like it might be more difficult for municipalities in North Carolina to add bike lanes to the roads if this passes. I see a lot more people using bike lanes for recreation/exercise than to commute (or more people wear bike shorts and tech tees at work than I realize), but this could make it more difficult for people to get into the habit.
Do you feel your area has enough bike lanes? Do you see more bike lanes or shared lanes? My area has both, but I haven't seen much success with cars and bikes actually sharing the shared lanes.
