I agree, it does suck.
I said I only do it if neccessary, ie when the car is blocking the lane on heavily travelled streets and it's not safe to pass on the remaining open lane. Being a bloody bumper sandwich sucks way more than bike tire tracks in the grass.
It's illegal to block traffic like that, but the law is so lightly enforced, the nimrods that do it will keep doing it. :sigh: Like every other law that apparently carries no weight. Beam me up Scotty...
