I've seen quite a few people mistakenly thinking a cycle lane on one
side of the road is a two way cycle lane. And with the Highway Code and
others trying to say you should use a cycle lane when its available, its
not surprising that people get confused. Genuine two way cycle lanes on
one side of the road add to the confusion.
