18th Street Express Lane?

I was headed eastbound in the 18th Street divided bike lane just after 6p this evening.  Friday after-work car traffic was backed up from Clark Street almost to mid-span of the bridge over the river.  Several cars decided that they didnt need to wait, cut between the bollards and drove the remainder of the bridge in the bike lane in order to pass the stopped traffic.  Most turned right on Wentworth but at least one jammed its way to Clark.  Quite a spectacle.  I hadnt witnessed this before but Im usually there later in the day.

Sounds like the they should've waited until the bridge construction was completed before installing the bike lanes.
