Yes, but also it's important to remember that there are no such things as "car lanes," only general-purpose ones. Even if good bike infrastructure exists, cyclists are still allowed to ride in those lanes, which means dangerous close passes by buses could still occur.

In my country it is actually illegal to ride a bike on the normal lanes if a bike lane / path is available

IMO this is how it should be.
