Chairman Mills truck: elephant in St George bike lane

St George St north of Harbord/Hoskin, Toronto, ON

This truck was stopped in the northbound bike lane on St George St in the heart of the UofT downtown campus, north of Harbord St near the Rotman biz school. The truck forced me out into the traffic. I explained why he should move. Giving me a withering look, to his credit he did move.

Canada Post truck parked right on a bike lane chevron

Wellesley Street, west of Bay St, Toronto, ON

Wellesley Street east of Queen's Park is an important safe(ish!) corridor for bicyclists (and skateboarders). Recently the road markings were upgraded with new chevrons painted. This Canada Post employee decided to park with his front bumper over a chevron. Meh.

Restaurant woman blocks bike lane for personal convenience

Harbort Street, west of Major, Toronto, ON

This woman couldn't be bothered parking legally; she stopped instead in the bike lane (near designated bike lane signs) so she could walk the fewest steps to the front door. When challenged verbally, she had no dis/ability reason for this manoeuvre.

Penske truck outside Starbucks blocks College St bike lane for hours

College and Beverley, Toronto, ON

This Penske truck completely blocked the bike lane on College St Eastbound, just East of the intersection with Beverley St.
(PS: the Starbucks right next to where this rental van was stopped was renovating - maybe their workers put the van there?)

Bicyclist loads bike into car stopped in bike lane

St George and College, NE, Toronto, ON

This occurred on the University of Toronto campus, on Saint George Street northbound just north of its intersection with College Street. The people in the photo were loading his bike into a stopped grey Matrix crossover suv/stationwagon. Driven, I think, by his mother. Talk about narcissism.
