Bike Bureau: Report Bike Lane Obstructions

My favorite one is a "Share the Road" sign with a bike on it, intended to remind drivers of bikers' presence -- but placed in the middle of a bike lane. Palo Alto loves these for some reason

> One report documents a problem; many reports can make the case for enforcement and safer, protected bike lanes.

In Boston we have a 311 app and I've taken to reporting every single bike lane obstruction I can find when walking about. I don't bike myself anymore after an accident last year in a bike when I was hit by a taxi. Things are definitely trending in the wrong direction in Boston.

Ooh, this autosubmit is cool. Is it open-source for individuals to add more cities, or expose it as an API?

I know it’s not exactly a bike lane, but if I took a camera on just one trip down a San Francisco “slow street” I could probably report a dozen violations on any day.

Do the cities that accept the reports do anything with them?

I really wish this weren't the case, but I'm afraid that we're heading to a place where if we flood reports to officials, they'll just jump on calling bike lanes "DEI" and take them out.

Is something wrong with bike lane uprising? They've been doing this for years, very active where I am, well connected both with activists and local politicians.
