So if that happens, back up, go around the other side of them b/c they've also usually pulled ahead and now can't move thier vehicle in any direction whatsover. And don't forget, always give them a friendly wave and a smile as you go by.
Yeah, I get a lot of that here on the eastside, too. People stuck in traffic who pull over and block the bike lane when they see me coming. (Avondale Rd is really bad for this one, and any roads near RTC)
Depending on my mood, they get one of two things as I pass:
a) a big sweaty handprint on their driver's side window or
b) a hose-down with Acellerade
