Honestly why the hell isnt this enforced.. not even when people are parked on bicycle lanes, or even people parked on the literal stop area for bus stop. Like come on find a spot around the corner..

There is a program meant to enforce that. Cameras will automatically ticket cars in bus or bike lanes. At first it's just cameras in a few dedicated cars patrolling a small area of the city. Supposedly they're also installing some cameras on a few buses. Idk why the slow rollout. This seems like such an easy win.

Here's a more recent article. Apparently they are moving forward with installing cameras on a whopping 6 buses. Hopefully this program doesn't get killed off after the pilot phase.
