I honestly can't even imagine what kind of scumbag would take the time and effort to deliberately try to put people in harm's way by doing something like this.

People refuse to understand any of the points that you've made.

Plus, bikes don't really create traffic jams the way that cars do, meaning that bike lanes look like they don't get as much use, so people just go, "look at that nearly empty lane I could be driving my car in all by myself." (They also fail to realize that that "empty" lane would sissy be filled with cars, so they'd just be sitting in traffic anyway.)
