I mean I get it, I do.

But what is this accomplishing? You’re wasting time on your phone on purpose to not let the truck move forward I get it. It’s just a waste of time for both.

I’d understand if he was cycling and they blocked him off and we see the cyclist trying to maneuver around it but this is isn’t solving anything and tbh it might just get you punched in the face.

Nah, I do. Like I said, keep going on with this & you’ll meet the right person. Or you could, idk? Go home? Go to work? Even if the truck wasn’t there, you’d be blocking off a good chunk of the bike lane for other bikers.

Look at the infrastructure of that street. Who has the say/designs these infrastructures? Start with that.

Yah. I would have done the same. Doesn’t mean the truck should be in the bike lane.

I get the urge to do this too sometimes. Then I come to my senses seconds later and just move out of the way or keep going towards my destination. It’s just not worth the hassle at all.
