Edit: So does that mean they can legally park in all the bike lanes? Is the bike lane even usable by bicycles any more, or has it just turned into Amazon’s exclusive shipping lane?
In Europe these ‘cargo bikes’ are being accepted quite well. I don’t mind them. They’re slow, low carbon footprint, child safe… So why not? They do take up a lot of space but that’s because the cycle path is too narrow. More cyclepaths so cargo can be delivered by bike. That’s what we need.
So this asshole is dickish with his reply, but I call them a fucko and I’m the asshole, alright. ANYWAY.
I wasn’t saying shit about having more bikes. How is this not obviously a huge win for amazon, tiny cars or not. You think this was the intent behind the bike lane laws? Abso-fuckin-lutely not.
The bike lane is usable. I mean, for about a half-a-block at a time, cause of the parked cars.
I wish NYC would allow citizens to take a video of a car parked in the bike lane for more than a minute, issue a ticket, and make it profitable for the ticket issuer. All of the problems would go away overnight.
And actually, I wish we could take videos of cars going through red lights. Or, LOL, illegal u-turns. “Go around the block” is not a thing anymore. Everyone just turns around wherever the fuck they are.
If it’s like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=483oaUU1tIs then the entire vehicle is built to the exact limits of e-bike laws. For example you can theoretically propel that thing by pedalling even if it is never intended that the ‘rider’ would do so.
Wtf for real?! Thats fucking wild

Can bikes park in bike lanes?
Beats the fuck outta me, but I wouldn’t have thought those delivery vehicles would have been “bikes” either, fucko
