DHL serial offender even irks motorists!
629 sixth ave, New york, NY
This guy was strategically parked so the bike lane was blocked just enough to prevent passage. While I was taking his picture, a guy in a minivan stopped in heavy traffic -- which caused the cars behind him to start honking -- and began screaming: "He's ****ing parked there every day! What the **** is this guy's problem?" I replied, "I just took his photo, man"; that caused him to repeat his diatribe even louder. Then he took off in a huff. The traffic agent, who had just put a second ticket on this guy's windshield, was halfway down the block. I told her about this and we both started laughing because it was so crazy. What's not so funny is that I observed at least 15 other delivery trucks blocking the bike lanes on Sixth Ave., Eighth Ave., Lafayette Street and Broadway this morning and afternoon ... more than twice the usual number.

The day before it was wreaths. Today it was entire trees and boxes of ornamental shrubbery. International gardens indeed.
'Tis the season...
799 sixth ave, New york, NY
To block the bike lane with wreaths? A lump of coal to wreath lady from NJ with van. But thanks to two FreshDirect drivers over the weekend for parking just outside the bike lane in the striped zone and not blocking it.
Dude fell asleep at the wheel
842 sixth avenue, New york, NY
Guy sat there in his huge truck in the bike lane for over 30 minutes asleep with the motor running (see my second pic!). Both on my way up and back down on Sixth I saw cops walk by and not even bat an eyelash. Hello, S.S.C. Carting, your fuel bill is going through the roof.
Sysco doofus
755 Sixth Ave, New york, NY
Looks like just about the whole block was open. Sysco instead parked in the bike lane. Must be those NJ plates that cloud the brain; this guy got a ticket in the bike lane just ten days ago, on 11/16.
Much to be thankful for
807 sixth ave, New york, NY
Thank you to every traffic agent and NYPD officer who has ever written a ticket for jerks from New Jersey who decide they don't want to crawl in traffic and instead want to drive in the bike lane.
Dude, you're paying $105 for your impatience!
p.s. do note the pigeon crossing the bike lane

This driver still owes $95 on a No Standing violation from a month ago. Better pony up soon...

The scene on Sixth Avenue: plenty of curb space available, but why bother when there's the bike lane? Lights were on, no one in the van. Maybe this explains why you got $370 in tickets in just two weeks last month?
Verizon being greedy in front of Duane Reade
777 sixth ave, New york, NY
777 Sixth Avenue had space at the curb, but Verizon preferred the bike lane. This one Verizon truck accrued a minimum of $3,900 in tickets since August. Nice work, fella.
