This is why you should flip in your side mirror when you park on the street

As fun as it may be to leave clothesline booby traps for cyclists attempting to traverse the narrow gap between the parked cars and moving cars, if you forget to flip it, some bigger car will always come around and do it for you.

    Traverse the narrow gap? Always trying to traverse the narrow gap, just wait to two fucking seconds, the light is red anyway moron.

    There is no imaginary bike lane between parked and moving cars, you’re just impatient. You should go get a motorcycle and drive down highway narrowly traversing the dotted line between cars stopped in traffic, that’s also a great idea.

    This kind of encapsulates the combative thinking that’s a problem with many SF bicyclists. Nobody maliciously thinks its “fun” to “clothesline” anyone — most people don’t have cars with collapsible mirrors (myself included) or just don’t think about it. It’s easy to read malicious intent everywhere when you go around with a chip on your shoulder, seeking it out.

    These can be expensive to repair if they are painted.
