Way back when, I was a commercial bike courier in San Francisco, and I had to quickly but carefully dodge many vehicles occupying what few bike lanes existed downtown then. Is someone inside? Slap a window. Are pedestrians absent? Ride the sidewalk. I was only endangered once, as a car door opened right in front of me. Brake fast, hey?
Casey Neistat would’ve ran into it >

So many Karen sympathizers in the comments. >

Where? >

I mean, I said that you shouldn't do paperwork in the bike lane, which is the same position as the "karen", but that doesn't seem like an extremist position to take. Don't stop in the middle of the highway to fill out your report, don't stop in the bike lane to fill out your report. Don't block traffic when you don't need to just because you are legally exempt from following traffic laws. Get somewhere safe and out of the way. >

Finding a spot takes time that could be spent clearing for the next call. >

There are literally parking lots everywhere.   
It ain't hard, they were simply being lazy. >

Even 30 seconds spent matters, and adds up over the course of a shift. >

One of the many reason cyclists suck. >


"finishing a medical emergency with a patient care document from a call at that location which is why they moved to the other side of the street rather than engage with you. Have a safe day."

Sounds like they didn't need to be parked there.. >

Where do you want them to go?  Serious question. Did you see where they went? Exactly the same position on the other side of the street. >


Where do you want them to go? Serious question. 

Any place that is legal to be parked.

Did you see where they went? Exactly the same position on the other side of the street. 

Not blocking a bike path..
Sounds like they found a much better spot on the other side of the street, so that works. >

I’m glad people feel so smug with that shit >

Yeah me too, blocking lanes without an emergency is just the worst. Lazy drivers. >

"The ambulance was engaging in patient care documentation after finishing an emergency call" said SFFD
Seriously, find a fucking parking spot for writing your report. Bike infrastructure already sucks, you don't need to make it worse by blocking it. >

If this ambulance parked in the middle of the road these commenters would be mildly frustrated. But if they park in a bike lane to do paperwork they are like 'chill out dude'.
