This is a flaw caused by unlimited free on street parking, a zoning flaw that needs to be fixed

  There should be no street parking when it removes a lane from traffic. seems an awful waste of space for one car that could be used to move vehicles.

    In old neighborhoods like mine, most people don't have driveways. I've found that this is most common in the oldest US cities, like Philadelphia.

  So instead of regulating a multi-million dollar “startup” we should regulate everyone else instead.

    I guess so, yeah. Free parking is a tax on everyone, but especially the lower class. This happens because the extra space needed raises the cost of goods, of adjacent property, and so on. The poorest and those without their own cars have to pay for it too. Regardless of why we're looking into it now, it is a problem, and we should address it.
