Hi There, As far as we know there have been no instances where a person walking or bicycling has been hurt as a result of a person mistakenly driving a motor vehicle on the 7-Line. It is alarming, but at this time we don't have any reason to believe it poses any greater risk to multimodal users than the behavior of driving or parking in any other bike lane facility. We are tracking crash data, and meeting periodically to review with our Engineering team. Please know that this behavior is being monitored and we will do what we can to remediate the situation while the community adjusts to the new street configuration.
