Thanks, Marcus and Josef: The following has been added to the article, based on my conversation aRead More while ago with LADOT's Tim Fremaux: Milick is the commander of the LAFD’s Hydrant and Access Unit, which partly oversees issues related to the right of Fire vehicles. “He basically said that the bicycle striping on the street does not interfere with either Fire vehicles or bicycles having to pull over out of the way” for Fire trucks,” Fremaux told Patch. I have put in a request to talk to Milick.

Marcus, Maybe Captain Milick is the LAFD's department specialist in transportation issues? ThatRead More would be my guess. Just a quick Google search seems to show his association with a lot of LAFD transportation issues.

@Ajay: I would like to clarify why the DOT consider Captain Milick the voice of the LAFD? (and notRead More Capt. Sanfilippo) Is he their official spokesperson? What specific reasons does he give why Bike Lanes are not an issue? Just stating that the DOT and Milick support Bike Lanes is not enough for an article. More information is needed, if possible. I support Bike Lanes, but want clear endorsements.
