Indy Bike Lane Survivor

Just a guy trying to get to work and back every day without dying.
Me: Mouth of a sailor and two middle fingers
Them: Two ton metal box on wheels
Even when the sidewalk is 15 feet wide, drivers want to occupy it all. Not only did the second driver pull up farther than necessary, he pulled up even closer as I approached to go between him and the truck in front. The cherry on top is the driver yelling at me as I ride away.

We truly have the most incredible drivers here in Indianapolis.

Also, I couldn't not post this perfect symphony of fuckery. You've got the RIP OZZY/HULK truck backing over the cone. The large truck using the cultural trail to back up. The Schindler elevator truck just parked right on top of the trail. Apparently, a giant construction site isn't enough space.

Watch this clip of my commute this morning. I steer around a car standing in the bike lane. Behind me is an IMPD cruiser who witnesses me being impeded by this and does nothing. It must be in a hurry though, because it illegally cuts through a parking lot to avoid waiting at a red light to turn.

Observe as traffic begins Southbound on Capitol. It quickly backs up, leaving traffic in the intersection. As the light changes, a driver at the light swerves around traffic and runs the red light (off camera). Pedestrians were already entering the crosswalk, resulting in a near miss.

This morning I decided to administer an impromptu driving test by asserting my right of way in this intersection. Unfortunately the driver failed, so I made sure to remind her of the rules of the road. "You didn't see me," and "you need to pause." It's like she took the words right out of my mouth.

Crosswalk Wednesday Pt. 2! The drivers slept in this morning, but they made sure they were out in full force this afternoon. How many will I have to weave around or battle in the Mile Square today? Let's count together!

It's Crosswalk Wednesday! How many crosswalks will I have to battle cars to access? This morning's ride was pretty nice. Only one car parked in the MI bike lane, and generally low traffic. The White River Trail detour continues to highlight a very sketchy crosswalk.

July 22, 2025. Pretty bad day. Multiple red light runners. Multiple people sitting in crosswalks. Almost got hit. Saw 3 different cybertrucks.
