Google bus issues

This needs wide dissemination: Google Bus driver claims photographing him blocking the bike lane is harassment (YouTube)

At 8th and Market there is a Muni bus stop which is regularly used by private shuttles. Sometimes, they park legally and there's no problem. Other times, they block the bike lane, or block the stop when Muni needs to use it.

Normally I stop and take a photo and send it to the SFMTA and Google's transportation manager. This time, the driver decided to step out and accuse me of threatening him via photography. He then threatened to have me arrested.
