Driving on the bike path

[scooterbug44]

There is no reason to EVER drive or park on the bike path!

No exceptions, no excuses!

Many times driving eastbound on Thirty-A in Seagrove, we've used the bike path to go around someone waiting a long time to turn left into Tom Thumb. Of course, we look for people on the bike path. I guess that's a bad thing to do, Kurt? If so, we won't do it again.

I plan to post a sign at our house for our guests reminding them to please be careful pulling out of our street. It's almost impossible to see people on the bike path due to shrubbery that blocks the view.

I know that spot exactly, and it is a royal pain to try and pull out. You have to come to a complete stop and then ever so carefully inch forward. I used to honk my horn to give a warning, but then traffic on 30A gets confused. Maybe the county could install some mirrors like some communities have done?

Saw a SUV parked on the T. Trail the other day, blocking everyone from using the path, and the only way around the SUV, was in the street. A family of five were waiting on traffic so they could go into the lane of the oncoming traffic to go around the violator. Telling some people how to behave seems so pointless, because they are selfish and care only about themselves.

Can pedestrians and bicyclists do like the fire department and smash the windows to get thru?

I wonder if a photograph of the offending vehicle shown to the local authorities would yield any assistance. License number included. :angry:

It would be funnny is someone carefully took a bicycle tire and rolled it up and over the hood, up the windshield and down the back to leave a tire impression in the dust just to make the owners of the vehicle scratch their heads a lot when they got back.

If there was a place to post them on the internet, would you?

I would just call the authorities and report it as a safety hazard. Give them the tags, location and description and let them deal with it.

That is the coolest idea!! I think I'm going to play some pranks at work with the notices of course only with people that will appreciate the humor.
