I think one way is the way. Then with self driving cars(cab like, but lots cheaper) reducing the numbers of cars will help. http://www1.toronto.ca/wps/portal/contentonly?vgnextoid=18cc...

Please let's avoid the "car-driving assholes" vs. "bike-riding assholes" back-and-forth that usually plagues these threads. This is covered by the site guideline on classic flamewar topics.
My city has them and I intentionally avoid roads with them. It's more dangerous because every intersection the protection is broken for the turning lane and let me tell you, cars do not check for you before jumping in to that turning lane. It's terrifying.
Would love to see this in more places, because seriously, no other method is safe. For me, mixing zones usually mean merging over to the turn lane and riding to the right side of cars turning left (NYC puts bike lanes on the left side of the road).
