I just heard of Bike Box and I have to put thumbs down on them. Think outside the box; You have to. You have to use your intelligence NOT to get in front of cars. Now I have been riding bicycle a long time, so I say this confidently. Stay out of the middle of the street and consider yourself invisible to cars. Do not attempt to ride with the automobiles. Bicycles are not automobiles and it's a boys dream to think a painted street will protect you. Only a physical barrier will protect you.
Let's say the traffic light is green when you reach the intersection. Are you supposed to cut off three lanes of traffic to make the right-hand turn???
good video... i couldn't understand it, but now i do

That wasn't a screw up... bike boxes are also new to Portland, Oregon this year, only there it seems to be pretty well publicized.
