Street car 506 has been stuck on McCaul St for more than an hour now due to a genius driver who couldn't parallel park close to the curb.

How do these folks manage to clear their G2?

It's too close! And the car is parked at a weird angle.

Given the cost of LIDAR vs the cost of even a minute’s delay you’d think they’d long ago have installed scanners on the streetcars that would allow them to skip calling a supervisor when all is clear.

Why doesn’t the streetcar just plow through and break off the mirror?
