A to E
Through a bond issue, a city council has the funding to create bike lanes in the city; however,
they cannot agree upon the routes and upon which streets should contain the bike lanes.
Expert A has presented evidence about traffic flow and bicycle safety, concluding that bike
lanes should be put on residential streets where possible and kept off the busier main
corridors. Expert A's evidence shows that this increases safety for the bikers even though it
may mean they will ride longer distances. Expert B has presented evidence about traffic
flow and bicycle safety that concludes that the main corridors are the better and safer
choice for bike lanes because they are wider and more easily accessible. The city decides to
go with Expert A's evidence and installs the bike lanes on residential streets. Shortly after the
bike lanes open, a biker is seriously injured when hit by a car backing out of a driveway.
Which of the following statements are true?
a) Expert A's evidence was accurate, and expert B's evidence was inaccurate.
b) Expert B's evidence was accurate, and expert A's evidence was inaccurate.
c) The evidence of both expert A and expert B was accurate.
d) The evidence of both expert A and expert B was inaccurate.
