I have a 49cc gas scooter. Its top speed is only 50kph, so I try to stay in the bicycle lane if traffic is heavy. I have searched drivesafebc.ca and ICBC but cannot find articles on whether this is legal.
If I was riding in the bike lane and was in an accident with a vehicle that made a right hand turn in front of me, who would be at fault?

This video is provided by the City of Guelph, Ontario and shows drivers how to drive at an intersection where a bike box is present.
Question: What do you do when you are trapped by circumstances and unable to legally correct a mistake? I followed two cars into a left turn lane on Saturday afternoon. I thought turning left was only prohibited Monday through Friday. Once past the single solid line I could see that it was also prohibited on Saturdays.
Jim Davies was unhappy with how close Kevin Elston parked his pickup truck to a cycle lane. The rearview mirror on the truck was a hazard to passing cyclists. Mr. Davies commented to his son who was riding along with him. Mr. Elston overheard the conversation, got into his truck and caught up to the Davies.
