What strikes me about the Cops in Bike Lanes Tumblr, which we first wrote about last week, is the variety. Cruisers, vans, motorcycles, scooters -- regardless of vehicle type, NYPD will leave it in the path of cyclists.

Unfortunately, given NYPD's utter disregard for public safety, there's no shortage of material. Send your photos and stories to copsinbikelanes@gmail.com. Be sure to include the date and where the pic was taken.

If you didn't know better, you might think this was intentional.
Blocking a bike lane at a blind corner? NYPD is on it.
