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. ;-)

2 cars in the Clinton 2-way lane this morning: the first used it as a train station drop off lane, and the second used it as a left turn lane (before turning into my path through a red light).

The guy who thinks he's allowed to park in the bike lane to drop off his daughter. Note the TWO empty spots visible. Since he chased me 1/4 mile the last time to rage at me after saying something, I chose not to engage today.  IL N86 5986 parked at 4588 N. Elston. Reported to 311.
