True up to a point. But what about when that on street parking creates a pinch point that makes it dangerous for two cars to try to go down the same road at the same time? And forcing one car to have to back up and look for someplace to temporarily park? Or even worse when the on street parking makes it impossible for first responders to get into a residential area and provide lifesaving services?

On my normal route I've seen narrow residential roads with on street parking on both sides of the road that has forced cars to have to back up, I have also seen on street parking going around blind and semi-blind curves. Hell on one road I've even seen cars parking in the bike lane very close to the signs that indicate that it is a bike lane. The irony here is that just across the road there is on street parking that they could have used. Except for the fact that they'd have had to do a little walking to get from the on street parking to the house.

No, it's "better" that they park in the bike lane thus forcing cyclists out of it then to park across the street.
