Bike lane? Never heard of not seen one. Must be a left-coast thing. No subsidizing here.

The only time I have ever seen expectant mother parking is at grocery stores and baby stores. In those cases, the stores own the parking lots, and have a right to do with them as they choose. They obviously think having such parking spaces are good for business.
