USPS van parked in the bike lane. Right after I took this picture he drove up another block, and obstructed the bike lane again (see picture below). I stopped to take another picture, which drew the attention of a CPD cruiser going the other way.

I asked the officer if we could do anything, he claimed he's "sweeping for bike lane obstructions" but he did not appear to be able to issue a ticket. I did not call CPD since they were already on scene and unable to assist.

The USPS driver then tried yelling at me that I was running red lights, as if that made obstructing a bike lane ok. I do not run red lights (it's illegal, dangerous, and stupid!), so I'm not sure who he was talking about, but even if I had done something wrong I don't understand how two wrongs cancel each other out here. During this encounter the CPD officer was present, but still did not get out of their cruiser to intervene with a private citizen being harassed.
