自転車交通標識京都Kyoto is flooded with cyclists - but no bike-only lanes.
This leads to various problems and some solutions.
The city for now is increasing the number of parking lots - and towing.
In addition, there seems to be an increase in the number of signs around town aimed at cyclists.
The one above right is quite direct: "Bicycles STOP!" It uses a rough verb form and the normal traffic stop sign in red above.
It also carries a bit of menace as it has the the city office and local police district names noted at the bottom.
At left is a politer sign requesting cyclists to "Please get off your bike and walk." This sign uses the "please" form and can be found on the Sanjo Arcade between Kawaramachi and Teramachi streets.
From 8 am until midnight, in this and the adjacent arcades you are not supposed to ride but walk your bike.
Widely ignored and rarely enforced.
