Stay in the bike lane....

NYC apparently needs more revenue. I think cyclists in NYC (from the video I've seen) do take it too far; I've seen them regularly riding absolutely anywhere including the wrong way up one way streets, between cars coming the other way, but requiring bikes to stay in the bike lane even HERE is ridiculous, in NYC it's impossible, as this guy shows. (and as the radio show host says, it's actually not illegal to leave the bike lane when necessary, not in ANY state).
