@PeoplesGasCHI Saying it does not necessarily make it true.
With incompetent people answering phones, providing wrong answers or not even knowing basic details and rude email responses to customer service requests, we CANNOT count on your help.

@ChicagoDOT Now CPD just needs to stop parking their own cars in these lanes and instead start ticketing…

[Martin 🟧 @perhapsmartin]

@ChicagoDOT We are happy to see the new bike lanes on Milwaukee. But they will work for bicyclist only under two conditions:
- CPD will actually ticket and tow cars parked in bike lanes and at bus stops
- Streets & San will regularly sweep the bike lanes

It’s @Bandcamp Friday again, and what better way to celebrate than with a new album release?

@pneelmeier Remember, Donald T. is the symptom, not the cause. Once he is out of the picture, there quite a few other weirdos out there.

@khron @grescoe The reason to have the bike 'trailer' in the front is so the driver can observe the loading and unloading of the bikes to avoid accidents. That is the same reason why they do not let the trailer being used downhill.

@MilwaukeeAvBike Welcome to 'if you have to ask you cannot afford it' gentrification ...

[Martin 🟧 @perhapsmartin]

@bikelaneuprise You can also tie together the windshield wipers of cars parked in the bike lane – or whatever needs to be tied down on the offending car...

You know that you are in Chicago when it is March and the river turns green and half the city is drunk..

[laina @laina_jpg]

i didn’t know Chicago went so hard for St Patrick’s Day this entire train is drunk at 9am

[Martin 🟧 @perhapsmartin]

@WBEZ Maybe, just maybe, they are doing all this because the Feds will eventually come for them ?
And maybe old white dudes need to be treated by the judicial system the same way it treats young black kids?

Hey @metraUPN – on the 19th day of February, your app still says "No tickets available. Please try again later"‽
1> why is this still an issue???
2>what do you recommend I do? Show up on the train w/o ticket? Pay cash?

@bikelaneuprise It is time that pedestrians and bicyclists carry brass knuckles…

[Martin 🟧 @perhapsmartin]

@bkevenides It seems to me this behavior might be drastically reduced if the city would just - consistently - ticket and tow cars that park in the bike lane...

[Martin 🟧 @perhapsmartin]

Hey @dominos , rather than putting a Chicago flag on your delivery vehicles, maybe explain to your drivers that parking on the bike lane is illegal in Chicago and kills bicyclists.

If you offer a universal transit infrastructure, people will use it. And it beats walking and driving at 33 degrees with freezing rain.

@NWChiFiets @AldermanLaSpata @BikeLA We not only need better designs for bike lanes, we need CPD to actually ticket and tow. They showed the can do it December 1 for snow routes, why not for bike lanes and bus stops!

When you have a Police Memorial license plate and a Thin Blue Line sticker, but do not understand that bike lanes are not for parking..,
