Room for Manouevre

Very often people who park their vehicles in mandatory bike lanes are accused of being lazy, selfish and of endangering and inconveniencing cyclists. This may be the case sometimes, but it is not always true, as shown here in Grove Road, Redland

As you can see, it is possible to safely negotiate the junction

the cyclist may be left facing oncoming traffic where they appear to have just popped out from behind a van, but as this is part of the Sustrans NCN4 route, who doesn't want a frisson of excitement before the dullness of the Railway Path?

Is it worth reporting this kind of violation? It happens quite a bit near me on Stretford Road near St George Park.
Warm regards,
Sam
