One problem I have noted about such lanes is that they are generally only 
on one side of the road. If you ride a bike with traffic it is no problem, 
but against it can be. Here in the US, where we drive on the right side of 
the road, people are used to looking to the left when they make a right 
turn onto the main road, but no so used to looking to the right where an 
oncoming bicycle might be in that lane. I presume in areas where they 
drive on the left the opposite would be true.
