I am fairly certain they see a sign like that and simply think that it is to tell cyclists to keep out of their way
This is why we need more signs that say "cyclists use full lane"
Combined with lanes that are narrow enough that a driver really isn't going to feel comfortable going faster than 30km/h anyway! I don't want to "share the road" with vehicles that are going to be super aggro, fast and dangerous. But it's not bad when everyone is going closer to the same speed anyway.
This is why we need more real, physically separated and protected, bicycle infrastructure. Signs are not a solution.
Not if pedestrians can walk on the bicycle paths.
I always do a sad laugh when I pass the "share the road" sign, almost as much as when I see the "single file. No passing." sign as motorists furiously close pass no matter what. 😣
Love when I'm riding at 30 in a 25 zone and cars roar past me because they can't accept being behind anybody but another car

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.
Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.
No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.
Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.
No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.
No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.
No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.
No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.
Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.
