Judgment time. Yesterday I was right about here, driving(not cyclist related!). It was perhaps a little further back, but a vehicle in front and to the left of me signalled and turned sharply to the right. I assumed he screwed up and was trying to get to the alley, so I had a little patience to let him through and eased off the gas, but I was also trying to get to the green light(I had plenty of time). But instead of pulling into the alley he straightens out and proceeds to stop directly in front of me. He had decided to park there(about where the blue vehicle is). Now, I get that that is a legal parking spot he could park in. But my gears were severely ground to have my open travel lane turn into a parking spot with no warning. This was a dick move, right? Or are my gears unnecessarily ground?

Uggh, I hate that spot soooooo much. That lane runs unobstructed for 8 blocks and then wham! parking, right before the intersection.
The extra fun of that turn lane is half the time the person in the middle turn lane makes no effort to keep in their lane.
