Probably cops everywhere.

Hell, one day I had an altercation with a motorist in the bike lane and called the police. The cop showed up… and parked in the bike lane. That I had called the police to keep cars out of.

(I’m proud to say that bike lane has those flimsy plastic sticks “protecting” it now, though.)

A while back I saw some NYC cops park very illegally to go into a Dunkin donuts. It was like seeing a political cartoon in real life.

Cops make a lot of money. I’d be less mad if they at least went to a local coffee shop instead of shitty tim hortons

The solution is simple. Call the bike cops on them😏

LOL, good idea – I wish I could request one specifically! Atlanta Police does have bike patrol units, but I’ve never seen one within a mile of where this incident occurred.

(Edit: I thought I was writing a follow-up to this comment, not a reply to a top-level comment, so that’s what the “incident” non-sequitur is about. Whoops.)
