Confrontation with repeat bike path parking offender. Due to poor cycling infrastructure

Melbourne, Australia

1 Jan, 2024 - 2 years ago - on Barnett Street

Poorly designed bike path that reduces car parking, provides opportunities for motorists to inadvertently and deliberately park across the bike lane, and leads to motorists exiting the side street to park across the bike lane while waiting to exit.

The driver of the Jeep is a serial offender. He works/owns a nearby motor works and regularly parks across the bike path. Last time I confronted him, in his business premises, he claimed the car was a customer's car and they would move it soon.

Note also the car exiting the side street which has to park across the bike lane in order to see whether it is safe to exit the side street.
