Toronto, 2017.06.22

Out for a spin today, I had the misfortune of being in a "sharrow" with a driver staring at his cell phone. He came through close enough to me that I'd had to shift into the turning lane to my right, which was thankfully empty. When I caught up to him at the light (where he was stopped on top of the "sharrow" paint mark), it took me three "Hellos" before I could divert his attention from the phone. I pointed out that it was a shared lane, and that he'd cut it short, and he shrugged.
