Very true. I will point out that both JC and Hoboken have done a crappy job of maintaining both the stripes and the plastic poles. One spot in particular, Harrison between Observer and NY Ave, the stripe is gone and it creates a hazard for drivers who know the bike lane is there! Several times when I've kept left out of the bike lane I've had asshole drivers pull up to the right of me in the bike lane even though the block ends in a single lane right turn only.

Also the daylighting combined with the bike lanes creates an untenable situation for delivery drivers. Some blocks there's now simply no place to pull over except double parking in the bike lane, and they have to get their job done. This is where engineering rather than enforcement has created a shitshow.
