While riding in a bike lane one day, passing a huge line up of stopped traffic on my left, I came upon a motor vehicle parked in the bike lane, apparently the driver thought this would somehow give her magical powers to escape the traffic (you know, like a cyclist can). After scaring her half to death by knocking on her back window (she apparently wasn't expecting a cyclist in the bike lane) she pulls into her lane and yells at me while I start passing, "Get on the sidewalk!" Referring to the wide sidewalk to my right. I look over, look ahead and back to her, then point at the bike lane, "This is a BIKE lane, THAT is your CAR lane..." She gets quite hysterical and kind of re-iterates her sidewalk rant. I respond by saying, "I am in my legal travel lane. If you stay there, in your legal lane, then there is no problem!" I left her laughing maniacally in her stationary car as I rode away.
