How to park in a bike lane
A video I made for a local news outlet in Halifax regarding some of the confusion around parking in bike lanes.

Cute. But don't lay your bike derailleur side down.

Earlier this year, I double-parked in front of my bike shop on the bike lane to run inside just for a minute, and I got a $100 ticket for parking in the bike lane; I think a simple double-parking fine is $25.

I have read that in some european countries you fail the driving test if you use your door-side hand to open the driver's door. Reaching across with your other hand automatically turns your body so you're likely to see an approaching cyclist in your door zone before you open it.
