No wonder so many motorists cut me off as if I don’t exist. How could they possibly see a bicycle when they can’t even see a train? For that matter, how could they even see other cars?! >.< The world won’t be safe from cars until computers drive them instead of humans.

Looks like it’s an expectancy issue. You don’t expect someone to be going straight on your left when you’re in a left turn lane. A few of the drivers are in no-left-turn lanes, so they have no excuse, but I can imagine that when trying to navigate a left turn against oncoming traffic the last thing you expect is someone coming up from behind on the left.

I’m with DoctorJay on this one. The tram lane is usually empty. You simply don’t ever expect to have anyone coming up on your left hand side in a left turn lane. I can easily see myself making that same mistake unless I just happened to notice some motion in my mirror.

I’ve seen some pretty close calls on VTA light rail, and I’ve seen motorists drive right onto the light rail ROW.
And then there was the time I was on a city bus in heavy traffic. We’re moving maybe 5 mph and the guy in the work truck immediately to our right merged left into the side of our nearly stopped bus. I couldn’t figure that one out at all.

The “don’t expect” excuse is just one of many (train is too big to see, cyclists too small, blind spots, distracted, etc.) used by drivers. Convenient excuses demonstrate the disconnect between drivers and their primary responsibilities. Whether cycling or driving, this foolish behavior is witnessed daily. It reminds me of drivers who signal lane changing only after crossing the line and using half of the desired lane. Expecting the worse often helps in preventing accidents.

And where, exactly, is “personal responsibility” in this huh? ie the real problem!
