When originally conceived, the hope was that sharrows would create distance between bicyclists and parked cars in order to avoid dooring crashes. Thus, many of the early studies of sharrows designate this avoidance of dooring as a primary objective.  Similarly, the initial objective listed in the MUTCD is to assist bicyclists with lateral positioning  so to avoid dooring crashes. However, this dooring objective is no longer the primary aim in  some cases, evidenced by the fact that sharrows are now commonly placed on streets without on-street parking.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE RELATIVE (IN)EFFECTIVENESS OF BICYCLE SHARROWS ON RIDERSHIP AND SAFETY OUTCOMES Nicholas N.
