It'd be cool if cyclists could sign up for a program like this. Just a little box on the handlebars that you press a button and it takes and sends a picture
They don't make an SD card large enough for me to take that many photos. I spend almost half of the street portion of my ride dodging cars parked in the bike lane. It's quite the contrast to when I'm in the woods on single track.
My city has an app for submitting traffic complaints that automatically grabs your location and asks for a photo of the offending vehicle and plate - and they've actually followed-up by sending people to confirm the violation and issue tickets. I've reported so many stupid trucks parked in bike lanes and motorcycles parked on sidewalks lol - carbrains are so obsessed with driving but can't seem to do it properly ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Here: you dropped this \
That’s sick. What city?
In germany there is weg.li thats is almost as good. It also fills in automatically most of the infos on the cars so you can send the stuff yourself pretty quickly
There’s a website called Bike Lane Uprising that has a database of cars violating bike lanes. Could probably raise millions for cities if they allowed cyclists to report violations.
