Ford sure hates those streetcars

So, they've wrapped up construction for the seasons on the new street car tracks on Ronces. Too bad the city couldn't think it was important enough to let car drivers know that the year-long park-where-ever-you-please-apaloosa is now over. Since they've widened the sidewalks on certain stretches, especially the block just south of Howard Park, if anyone parks in the curb lane there, the streetcars can't get by.

Guess what, traffic chaos has ensued. Of course the simple solution, to have a tow truck waiting around to tow the cars (and make a fabulous amount of money in fees/fines). I guess that would not make people hate street cars any more. I smell a Ford or two behind this fiasco (plus several Hondas and at least one Beemer as of a few minutes ago).
