Maybe bikes can just ride over cars and the police can decide to not enforce that in addition to not enforcing the lane blockages. People would probably stop parking there pretty quick. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33Hkyb9c9NQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33Hkyb9c9NQ
Of course if you/the bike can't make such a jump... well I already get annoyed by bikes on the road which can't reach the road's speed limit so I'll shut up here.
- justherefortart 9y agoSpeed limits are a ceiling not a floor.
- Jach 9y agoAnd yet the average speed of a well-flowing road will invariably be near the speed limit. If your mode of locomotion can't reach the road's ceiling, it shouldn't be on that road.

They're still people trying to get somewhere just like everyone else. Sometimes they're trucks going uphill - you can't exclude trucks from entire towns. The rule in most places are to pull over from time to time to let following vehicles pass.
