Isn't That A Problem?

There is a real fault with our road laws that I can see.

If you are a car turning left and you have to wait for pedestrians to cross the road into which you are turning, and there is a bike path in the road out of which you are turning, bikes can come up the bike path out of no where and just go straight through the intersection. And you can turn in front of a bike that wasn't there moments before.

Surely, the safest action here should be for the bike to stop and give way to the car turning left. The bike is after all behind the car, coming along after the car has commenced its lefthand turn.

The way it is now, it is just an accident waiting to happen, as far as I can see.
