What's this doing in the bike lane?

Share your pics, videos, streets, stories of what you find in the bike lane of the non-bike variety that has an impact on your ride and/or your safety. I've decided to keep it a little more open ended - cars, snow, buses, garbage, cabs, etc. If they shouldn't be in the bike lane, go ahead and add it to this thread. Please be safe if you are taking pics or video! :-) 

My hope is that we can collectively build some evidence of what we see when riding in the city with the overall hope of better enforcement of "bikes only" and improving maintenance. 

Update: More Hashtags to Capture Vehicles in the Bike Lane

With popular hashtags:
#BikeLaneShaming

#LaneSpreading (Chicago Bike Selling)

#ClearTheWay (ActiveTrans), there are many options to capture violations.

We think you should use ALL of them AND post your photos on The Chainlink. ;-)

another response fromTom Janociak "Our customers say jump , I say how high?
Customers say, Can you park illegally, I say how long ? And who's paying the ticket, if it's them then no problem."

Wow, with replies like that, I know who I will NOT be calling if I'm ever in need of charter service.

Having almost been Doored by an Uber dropping off across the street from estate club I applaud your effort. This is a spot to be mindful of for sure. (my camera was out of battery after a very long ride...)

Went on a 15-mile ride earlier this afternoon. Here's what I spotted on the way back, on Bryn Mawr east of Pulaski:
