There's a 1000 sq ft house up the street from me with four of those trucks, and they have to park two of them real close in the driveway like that (one spills over the side and sits on a hole filled with rocks) while the other two park on the narrow stretch of street curb that doesn't block driveways. Their trucks are bigger than their house. It looks stupid.

Some jerkwad in my neighborhood has a lifted pickup with extra wide wheels with a veterans license plate and when they park it on the street it spills over into the bike lane because it's wider than a loving bus

if he's disabled he probably needs the extra-wide wheels to get around.

The solution is to have a car so tall that the door clears the bike completely.

My basement runs the length of my row home so when I want to test ride something briefly I can just mount up and ride the length of it. Another reason why narrow row homes rule

Yeah parking on the street is annoying to other people and is ugly I get that, we're in the second house back on a block of land with a long driveway, so we can park in front of our garage in a way that you can't even see the car from the street. The issue with putting bikes anywhere other than the garage is that they're kinda dirty, especially if you've just been out riding in the rain and they're dripping wet. When I was living in an apartment with a balcony I'd leave them out there as it was tiled but still under-cover and too high up for anyone to steal, but I still had to carry it through the apartment to get there which was less than ideal. The whole design of a garage is for storing dirty vehicles which may or may not be covered in mud/road grime and dripping wet, and I figure that the bicycles are easily stolen and will degrade faster if left out in the elements compared to the car, so they get priority.

You should use your garage for storage and put your car where it belongs: in the trash.

Having a garage that is too full of junk to store your primary vehicle is cringe. If your primary vehicle is a bicycle, that’s fine though.

Don’t worry. Garages are on their way out. They’re all being converted to illegal apartments.

Also best thing about bicycles is when you got some work to do on them, worst part about cars is when they need work. gently caress them cars

Xaris posted:nah, the tesla driver was 100% at fault. you have to yield to vehicles already in an intersection no matter what, and it's legal to enter an intersection on yellow (and thus required to exit the intersection as soon as possible). not to mention speeding ~65 in a 40 zone and that they were going to run a red no matter what The other driver entered on a red light. If they had entered on a yellow it would have been solely the Tesla driver’s fault, but they didn’t.

dont know if they did or didnt but you are still required to yield to vehicles in an intersection no matter what. that's literally the law. there's almost zero exception for not being at fault in t-boning someone
