I bike at Georgia Tech. We are notorious for violators. Especially the ones who do U-turns through both bike lanes on a double yellow striped road :D

Tour Bus swings into campus bus stop/bike lane

5th Street and Spring Street, Atlanta, GA

Although the pictures aren't my best work, the bus is about 3/4 into the bike lane and diagonally parked (idling!) where our campus buses pull over to stop. In this busy area, someone that pulls over here causes the campus buses to pull next to them, and then impatient drivers move into oncoming traffic to get around the whole mess.

They're just not thinking very well about where to park. A classic case of OPW syndrome (Only Person in the World).

Loomis can't decide whether to block bikes or cars

5th Street and Spring Street, Atlanta, GA

Nearly to class as I came on a Loomis truck, idling with hazard lights going. And we all know hazards are the universal nose upturned at all relevant traffic laws.

Friendly driver decided he didn't like me taking photos, and started honking at me, but no confrontation ensued.

Blank Truck seems to be USPS, unattended in bike lane

Ferst Drive and Atlantic Drive, Atlanta, GA

Came across this on my way back home, sitting outside of the BME complex. The crates inside the truck say United States Postal Service, although the vehicle itself had no markings. The tag is government registered.
