Who else loves the feeling of trying to guess whether there’s a car about to hit you? Thanks for the opportunity to play, FedEx!

Protected bike lanes make riding so much more pleasant
I did my first ride on the new Beacon Hill bike lanes and dang what an improvement.

Last October, we live-tweeted PA Supreme Court oral arguments in which a cyclist got a $25 ticket for "impeding traffic." The cyclist fought the ticket: xcancel.com/DashcamBike/...

In a major victory, the Court just AFFIRMED our right to take the lane 🎉

Bicyclist was just doored on Butler St. He dipped in and out of consciousness before being taken by the ambulance.

The police decided not to show up because “the biker left the scene.”

In an ambulance.

This is why our city crash data sucks — nothing is reported. 2023 had more than five crashes.

Seen in Philly: ICE vehicles illegally parked in bike lane.

An unrelated fact: your city’s 911 may ignore calls about illegal parking in the bike lane, but you can leave it ambiguous by saying that a car is blocking the “travel lane”.

No amount of driver education or enforcement will fix this. People are not patient. Vulnerable road users need real separation, not just paint.
Almost got hit by a car driving through bike lane on Spruce at 8th street, because he couldn't bear to wait for the tour bus in front of him.

PAINT IS NOT PROTECTION. CONCRETE NOW.

This driver parked half in a parking space, half in the bike lane. Parking legally would have been easier, and it’s free today.

Why do drivers do this?

Who do you call about this?

Anyone know what this sign means:
"Tow away: no standing or parking any time"

Quite confusing!
Dear Mr. Porsche, I know you are much more important than this silly parking sign - but are you really more important than the multiple #bikedc kids & parents who had to swerve out of the bike lane around the back end of your car into the traffic lane?
