Poplar Plains Road, Toronto, ON
Poplar Plains Road is a long steep hill leading up from downtown to midtown. This guy was filling up a dirt box on the back of the truck with broken up concrete from the driveway. Going around this guy did not make the climb any easier
St George and Lowther, Toronto, ON
This guy was parked admiring the scenery and after he saw me take his picture, took off.
St George St and Bloor St, Toronto, ON
Amazing. An 18 wheeler delivering potted shrubs to the yacht club. There is a big driveway for deliveries that a smaller truck could have easily fit into but these guys had to drive an 18 wheeler into the middle to the city and park it at this very busy intersection
St George St, Toronto, ON
Canada Post trucks are another major bike lane offender group
St George Street and College St, Toronto, ON
Lab chemicals delivery truck. There was an open driveway for delivery trucks immediately to the drivers right but for some strange reason he or she decided that blocking the bike lane was the best option.
College St and University Ave, Toronto, ON
After I took this picture, I got on my bike and continued past the SUV. Out the open window the driver said "Sorry!"
College St and University Ave, Toronto, ON
This is a uniform supply company blocking the bike lane in fron to Toronto General Hospital
Gerrard and Jarvis, Toronto, ON
The main pic shows the risky behaviour bikers have to resort to in order to go around this truck Second shot show license plate more clearly
Gerrard East and Jarvis, Toronto, ON
This truck is exactly the right width to block the entire bike lane.
551 Sherbourne St, Toronto, ON
OK, not a bike lane violation, but yet another example of bike resources being mis-used. Dog owner uses bike parking post to tie up his mutts while he is doing his grocery shopping.
Sherbourne and Bloor, Toronto, ON
This is a popular place for bike lane perps due to the bank and banking machine on the corner.
162 St George Street, Toronto, ON
Chairman Mills is a company that provides chairs, tables, what have you for special occasions. These guys were not providing chairs for the University Women's Club, but for the Bata Shoe Museum on the other side of the truck and right on the corner of Bloor and St George. The head-scratcher here is that there is a short lane between the Women's Club and the Bata Museum that the perps could have backed into. Not only would it have cleared the bike lane, but it would have meant a much shorter carry for the chairs and tables. Go figure.
214 St George Street, Toronto, ON
St George Street has to be one of the worst in the city for bike lane violators, but this one takes the cake. There are no stopping signs posted up and down the street, but hey, nobody said no dumping, right?
What makes this worse that there was ample room on the building property to put this pile of dirt.
First pic shows the pile of dirt and the trailer full of equipment in the background. Pic 2 is taken from the other direction showing the truck and plate.
Sherbourne at Bloor, Toronto, ON
Picture one shows that not only is this a bike lane, but a no-stopping zone amd a clearly marked bike route. Picture two shows the license plate. The driver - a woman in her mid-thirties, was at the bank machine just around the corner. Without going into details, this was a woman who could use a little exercise.
240 St.George Street, Toronto, ON
The RCMP have had a patrol car parked in the bike lane in fron of the Chinese Consulate on St George for over 3 months now. They also have a trailer piled up with crowd control barriers parked in fron of the patrol car.
Sherbourne at Bloor, Toronto, ON
This guy was stopped in the Southbound Sherbourne Street bike lane 100 feet north of the Bloor and Sherbourne intersection. Driver was having a smoke and was still there when I went back a half hour later.
