Interesting study from USA: proper built bike infra is good for the safety of _everyone_ (even car users), while only painting bike lanes does not make a street any safer, and might even make it more dangerous.

Observed this sign while riding the transit rail. Essentially, it is loosely translated to read:

"Must yield to streetcar - even if you are in the crosswalk."

Bonus points for having streetcars in town and for the overused Beatles- inspired image. Everybody must yield to the mighty streetcar.
