Add a motorcycle lane to the highway system in Dallas. To help promote better traffic flow. Use the existing highway in non HOV lane areas. Paint a section of the shoulder as a motorcycle lane.
Why is this important?
Motorcycles have poor cooling and create a lot of heat. Motorcyclist wear a lot of extra gear and do not have A/C like cars do. The potential for a heat stroke in the summer months is there. Also this will improve safety as motorcycles won't have to lane split illegally. It will improve the flow of traffic. Safety being that it is used in high congestion times of traffic and cyclist only go no more than 10-20MPH of the current speed of traffic and no more than 45 MPH in such cases they should use the existing lane. It will also promote new riders and possibly promote more fuel efficient travel to and from work during commuting hours.
