Steady ride in w/ some extra lane splitting and lane changing thrown in for good measure. Locked up by the Salvation Army volunteer and donated some water to her so she could take her medicine.

Cagers usually grab any available space they can wedge themselves into so I don't feel bad when I filter or lane-split. Just because they can't fit in that 3' wide section doesn't mean I shouldn't ride in that "lane". If the car could fit through that small space, the driver wouldn't hesitate to filter through.
