If I were a bicycle messenger I would probably keep a squirt gun full of paint thinner with me all the time and just squirt some paint thinner on any car that pissed me off.
As soon as bicyclists stop blowing through red lights and generally acting like the traffic laws don’t apply to them they will be entitled to bitch about a car service letting someone off in the bike lane. Until then, completely appropriate for cars to use the bike lane for pickup, dropoff, loading and unloading, idling, etc.

DH, dont tap car. scrap it with key. but dont over do it as scrapping sound would be loud enough to get driver’s attention. just enough so there are marks.
lol that is the dictionary definition of passive-aggressive. why not also stick a bird on top of the car while youre at it?
in this case the car could have turned about 10 feet onto broadway and let the person out there (i think?) i have no goat in the ring as i dont care for cars or bikes, but in this case the driver literally was just blatant about it. and of course the chick who got out of the car was a spoiled pampered princess taking car service to work.

NOTICE OF MEETING
THE REPUBLICAN MEN’S LUNCH CLUB WILL MEET TODAY AT 11:45 A.M. AT GRAND SICHUAN, 2ND AVENUE BETWEEN 55TH AND 56TH.
Attending will be DIBS, Adam Dahill, Snappy, lechacal, and anyone else who would like to join. Everyone is invited.
Cutting someone off = bad.
Stopping (not parking) in bike lane for 30-60 seconds = no problem.
“DH – maybe I am misunderstanding you – I am thinking a car is letting a passenger out in the bike lane and that’s what is upsetting you? am I wrong?”
no. it’s dick. if there’s a bike lane on the street you want to get out at, pull off to the side street.
i live on a street with a bike lane and i always make sure the driver doesn’t double park in the lane. it’s inconsiderate.

Perfectly accceptable for a car to stop in a bike lane to discharge passengers.
in this case the car could have turned about 10 feet onto broadway and let the person out there (i think?) i have no goat in the ring as i dont care for cars or bikes, but in this case the driver literally was just blatant about it. and of course the chick who got out of the car was a spoiled pampered princess taking car service to work.
