I see some issues with this video.
If a bike is proceeding straight through an intersection the bike lane should become striped and the bike should merge into the traffic lane that is going in the direction they are going. They should not be going through in the bike lane which is the right turn lane for a car and they are not seen as well as if they are in the straight traffic lane to oncoming traffic. This video is not completely accurate. The law is Far to the right AS PRACTICABLE.

I hate "as far to the right as practible" I always change it to "as far right as saftey allows" Yeah, I got the from a Georgia law maker.... And I keep repeating it.

Nice work: it's great you're getting this message out. I particularly like the upbeat nature -- no guilt or accusations thrown around -- and the fact that you stress co-operation between cars and bikes. It's also good to reinforce that as part of traffic we cyclists have to follow the rules too: that sometimes gets overlooked!
