I think she means the whole idea of bike friendly infrastructure as a US citizen. But thats my interpretation, the comic isn't very clear.
Yeah it is confusing. But as you pointed out the sign means no entry for bikes in most of the Europe, it doesn't mean anything in US.
On the other hand this is titled car-brains on vacation. Implying they normally drive cars.
Really confusing.
I think, a "biking prohibited" sign would have a wider black border. Yet, the border of the "bike lane" sign in the picture is a bit too wide, in my opinion, to avoid confusing it with a "biking prohibited" sign.
