Update: Victims of the Zeitgeist Bikepocalypse Can File Insurance Claims

Following up on Saturday's accident at the Zeitgeist bike corral that saw 30+ rides wrecked, the SF Bike Coalition learns that victims can go to Mission Station to file an insurance claim:

The SF Bicycle Coalition has confirmed with the Mission Police Station that the driver of the vehicle did stop and provide their insurance information.  If your bicycle was one of the bikes damaged in the crash, go to the Mission Police Station and provide a description of your bike. You will receive a case number and details to file an insurance claim.

Now we get to wait and see if the city will bother to replace the month-old corral, or just chalk it up to bad planning.

The cosmic truth & justice vortex in action?

The Bike Coalition and its twin, the SFMTA, ratchet up annoying…

…while PETA, with its sensible “uh, NO!”

to Bevane Duftly and his “give homeless crazies even more sad stray animals for us to worry about”

…slides into 2nd place.

Kudos and a “Chris Daly is Ross Mirkarimi’s demented half-sister” award to everyone at SFMTA, PETA and the SFBC!!

Why would it be bad planning? What would be there if the bikes weren’t? When people plow into parked cars (or parklets) should they chalk that up to bad to planning?

Maybe they should, I don’t know, put it on Valencia instead of Duboce right after an offramp that is notoriously frustrating.
