Other: Today at 1:18pm I was traveling north on Hawthorne and came upon someone from parking enforcement parking directly in the middle of the street, blocking traffic from both sides, as well as the 'neighborhood greenway' bike path, in order to (I assume) write a parked vehicle a ticket, despite there being available parking along the east side of the street (both in front of and behind the large silver SUV shown on the right hand side of the photo). The officer returned to the car and moved out of the way upon our approach (although not for the bicyclist that was ahead of us). While we didn't wait very long, I would think parking out of the way in the first place would be the preferred method for performing his duties, rather than blocking traffic to do so. Just a thought.
