Yes, it's time for another round of "Who's the dick?"

Um, yes. It happens all the time. The car will pull over as far as they can, but that’s only so far. You either drive around them if it’s clear or you wait.

Sure, on the Interstate they’ll have shoulders wide enough that this isn’t a problem, but most other rodes have maybe 2 feet off the lane. You can’t pull over very far.

Heck, a lot of time, the reason the person is stopped is the police.

The fact that so many of you are freaking out over a normal part of driving is weird. If they didn’t want it, then don’t make the bike lane the furthest on the right, where you are supposed to pull over.

Well, cars stopped in lanes (for non emergency reasons) that are supposed to be moving or parked there during no parking hours (thus blocking off a lane) piss me right the fuck off, too, so yeah. That’s not normal driving to me. That’s being an asshole.

I’m not surprised that city cyclists are more “on edge” than the average commuter. They are closer to being maimed or killed in any driver-to-cyclist miscommunication. Because of the stakes it’s more important to them that cars follow the rules than vice versa.
