DC's finest didn't feel like staying out of the bike lane. By the time I got the camera out he had drifted back a bit; the previous couple of blocks the cruiser was another foot or two into the bike lane. Didn't seem to be any particular reason for it...

after taking this, the lady ordered me up to her car, asked why I was taking a picture- I told her she parked in a bike lane and even had an open parking slot in which to slip in. She cussed me out and said she was waiting on someone getting dialysis. (sign on the door said the place was closed- my guess is paying a water bill) She claimed to be an officer. (all the more reason to follow the law) On the other side of street two patrol cars are parked, in the lane on the other side, metro van is parked behind her, leaving only one lane of traffic to get though- so much for bikes on this impassable street.

The car was parked on the west bound lane of the 1300 block of E. Capitol St. While I was taking a photo, another biker had to merge into the lane of traffic to get around this.

I was riding down 14th St and saw a cabbie double park his car right in the bike lane and go into Al's for what was presumably a slice of pizza.

This guy apparently thought it was ok to park the wrong way in a parking space and block half the bike lane. I realize there's no IQ test for buying small cars with mediocre fuel efficiency, but this is particularly dumb.

15 minutes sitting in the bike lane while getting nasty carryout chinese food.

Passenger van used for shuttling around government workers.

Cabbie just sitting in the bike lane talking to his fare while blocking both the bike lane and a side street.

The USCP officer was parked there all day. There was no reason why he couldn't have been parallel to the curb and out of the bike lane.

What's the point of all these new bike lanes downtown if they're used almost exclusively as loading zones for delivery trucks?

Flower delivery guy blocking both the bike lane and the crosswalk.

People moving at 10:30am.

This guy was sitting in his truck, with his 4 ways on, watching people decorate a fence.

3 cars in a row parked illegally in the bike lane outside E St Cinema.

Plenty of spots to park in, but stood by truck with lights flashing. Guess he thinks that is ok.

This guy just didnt want to pull in straight enough to clear the bike lane.

Just a moment before a column of traffic had past, but this guy still had to veer around a car on 13th and Massachusetts. The bike lane south of Thomas Circle becomes a default parking lot most evenings (and during the day). Taxis also like to idle in the bike lane on this block.

Water is great, but unobstructed bike lanes are better.

Over 20 minutes shopping at the Footlocker near 14th & U NW.

3 vehicles in a row blocking the bike lane.

Delivery trucks don't have anywhere else to go, it seems.

Every morning, cars seem to double-park in the bike lane to load and unload at this charter school in Columbia Heights. But is it still loading and unloading if nobody's in the car?

It can be hard to find legal parking in this neighborhood, so why not use the bike lane.

This woman wasn't very happy with what I was doing, but I wasn't very happy with her blocking the lane!

The young lady attempting to bike around the obstruction asked what I was doing. I told her about the site and hopefully she'll join the cause.

Sitting at the light. A car pulled up to her left, and when the light changed she screeched over and cut in front of him to get back to the main lane.

but it is okay, the flashers were on

Pulled into the bike lane and sat there, awaiting the green light to turn right.

picking up no one, just hanging in the bike lane.
