So according to a comment in r/fuckcars, this isn’t a bike-lane barrier at all. Which makes sense to me because I was having the hardest time trying to figure out where the bike lane was in the photo (the lane on the left seems to be a car lane, as does the one on the right, seeing as they’re both full car-width, which bike lanes almost never are).

So not only is this person blaming this braindead driver’s ridiculous error on a bike lane, they’re blaming it on a bike lane that doesn’t actually exist here.
