Love when I’m doing some Uber driving and the very same people who are vocal about delivery drivers and drivers waiting for riders “blocking” the side lane and I just KNOW you’re the same people ordering the food I’m delivering or the very same people asking whats taking me so long to get to you in reduced lane traffic… You all use delivery apps and call Uber/Lyft for rides. Very few of you actually bike or scooter to get around. You applaud evil ass PPA cockroaches writing tickets and you applaud bike lanes and bus lanes. But most of you are in the back of an Uber right now as you downvote and come up with some smart ass rebuttal. Stay hypocritical out there!

I will say a bright color on bike/bus lanes does make me feel safer when cycling. I wish that at a minimum we could get full green paint on all of the bike lanes.

But yeah, I don’t really ride my bike in the bus lane even though it says it’s only for bikes and buses. It’s a defacto driving lane on Chestnut even where it’s fully painted because nobody does anything about it.

You could setup a literal single police officer to patrol the multi-block bus lanes and they would make a killing writing tickets…
