    If they tell you it’s not safe to put their equipment in the buffer zone, ask why it would be safe to send a human through there on a bike.

    This sign(placement withstanding) is 100% for the twonk in the white car, who can’t even stay in lane.

    I’d gladly move that bullshit to the slashed out lane in between, and if I happened to get arrested, I’d be proud to speak to the judge about it.

    “Your honor, there was an obstacle in the bike lane”

      You aren’t allowed to stop, stand, or drive on a surface marked like the buffer zone between the bike lane and the cars. You are right. That’s exactly where this sign should have been placed

      I bet whoever placed it, just understands dropping off trailers with their work truck and probably hasn’t even thought through how a bike lane works.

        IDK, entirely possible I guess 🤷

        Either way, if I was riding a bicycle IRL and encountered that, I’d move that shit.

          Have you seen the video of the guy that rides his bike into cop cars parked in the bike lane in NYC? Pretty hilarious.

          It is, but also isn’t. Dana is actually more bike friendly than other places in CA than I’ve experienced. It’s a coastal town that has quite a few teens riding through. I grew up there and never saw anything like this. Not to say it isn’t possible, but I do also think it unlikely

    Ya I guess drivers have to be extra alert for bikers considering these fucks are blocking the bike lane forcing them to go around into traffic. Brilliant.
