Heh, I like how you think.
Good thing it was so minor, OP. I try at all costs to go out around double-parkers, though it sounds like this one didn't leave much of an option. One of my routes home from Manhattan (I live pretty far north in Manhattan) is along a bike-laned street which is dotted with double-parkers the whole way. One time I pointed it out to a traffic cop in his little roving trike box and the guy said "he's not parked in the bike lane" because someone was still in the car. Grrr! I was too stupified by the
traffic cop not wanting to hand out a ticket to point out that (IIRC) even standing in a bike lane is a ticketable offense.
