<WBR>I disagree, you get busted, you're busted. No dbl parked car is going to save your butt. That said, by nature, a motor vehicle infraction is more dangerous to general safety of the public and the dbl parked cars in Central Sq, lethal to bikers. <br>
<br>
That said, if you are REALLY fed up about the dbl parked cars--and the Cambridge Bike Committee has some conversations about this--you should mount a complaint with the Cambridge PD. That would be a good use of "critical mass." <br>

Thom, it's not about two wrongs making a right. It's about consistent enforcement. <br>
