You would think, but apparently nothing is "simple stuff" for some people.

If there is a vehicle double parked...drive around it. Pretty simple stuff for something that is obviously only there temporarily.

I've never once in my entire life had the slightest concern or second thought about where any vehicle was parked, legally or otherwise. But then again, I'm also never offended by the sight of a naked dog. And when I notice somebody sitting in a chair, I don't call the police.

However, after reading all the sniveling in this thread, I will enjoy parking in the bike lane. I mean, right in the middle of it, where cyclists have to totally go around, which would ruin their entire day if it were not already ruined by all of the injustices they are suffering.

Just make sure it is a bent with disc brakes ridden by an old geezer who overlubes his chain and dresses like Froome.

I'll let you surprise me if it has a bell or not.

Five pages now and I bet it hits ten. I've wasted more time on this thread than it took me to circumvent all of the vehicles in my way during the past month.
