I’m in Yerushalayim for Yom Tov, and I saw another reason not to park in bus stops. Bus stops here tend to be sort of an extra lane (the road widens so the bus can stop on a narrow street without blocking traffic). The buses also tend to be really long articulated affairs. So a taxi was stopped in the bus stop, and the bus couldn’t pull all the way in. It stopped and all the cars behind had nowhere to go. The bus was really crowded so it took a long time for the passengers to get on. Even though the taxi was gone, there was, as they say in the traffic reports, a “residual delay.”
