    People that park in bike lanes should lose their license and car. Selfish and hazardous behavior.

      I genuinely think they need more than a painted bike and a single white line every quarter mile… and the occasional solitary sign every couple miles. Different colored paint or better signalling would go a long way in solving actual mistakes and would also kill off “willful ignorance.” If its obvious and clearly marked you can be more aggressive with tows and tickets which, in a perfect world, could finance more of the same. Open lanes could work in places where its not as easy or convenient to ‘be that guy .’

      when you ride your bike and encounter a obstacle like this, be safe!

      1. slow down
      2. watch for traffic
      3. pass the obstacle on either side
      4. spit on a window in passing
      5. get back into the bike line and continue.

        4 is best replaced by taking out the u lock from your belt and hitting the side mirror or window with it as you pass
