For those interested in this topic, there are better sources of info than a NJB youtube video. In my experience, NJB is more interested in clicks than accuracy, and this video is no exception.
In particular, the complaints about oversized firetrucks is a bit overblown because any halfway competent bike planner can work around that when designing bike facilities. When cities say they can’t do a bike project because of FD concerns, it usually means they just don’t want to do an otherwise popular project, and are using flimsy FD excuses as a convenient way to kill a project.
Okay, so if oversized firetrucks are not to blame, then why exactly are US car lanes so damn huge? 12ft car lanes seems standard in most of the US while Europeans drive just fine with 8ft wide car lanes.
