Bike lane ends abruptly?
Commuters brave roads where bike lanes end abruptly. Close passes go unreported.
1. The problem
Cycle commuters navigate streets where protection vanishes mid-block. Close passes go unreported daily. Potholes and glass hide in gutters. Night lighting fails on key stretches. The hardest part is true danger knowledge beforehand. A map might show lanes that end dangerously. That uncertainty makes it hard to commute by bike safely.
“Lanes vanish mid-commute with scary passes. I need street safety scores from real riders.”
2. What exists
Strava heatmaps, city bike maps and Close Pass apps inform cyclists, while danger stays anecdotal. Heatmaps show popularity, not safety. An app might log incidents sparsely. There is little help with street-level safety scores plus incident reporting for commuters.
3. The solution
The solution could be a safety-truth layer for cycle commutes. It could score streets from rider reports and incident data. It could route around danger with small time costs shown. Hazard reports could warn followers instantly. The goal would be commutes survived pleasantly daily.
