It is amazing what complete pricks most (not all) bicyclists are. It would have cost the idiot with the bicycle damn near nothing to get out of the way, but he decides to deliberately make the car driver's life miserable. Joe Biden him.
That said, I recently was on a curvy mountain road frequented by bicyclists. I was very positively impressed with one bicyclist who took the turn out and let the cars pass. Most act like their entitled to keep everyone else on earth waiting for them.
#1. Someone riding on the sidewalk, or driving on the sidewalk? Interesting that there are no cars in the 'road' behind the bicyclist, but the other lanes are dead stop. So...keep your car off the sidewalk, or keep your bicycle off the sidewalk?
#1 looks like one of those extinction level protesters who failed math. 120lb(55kg) protestor with 10lb bicycle against 4200lb vehicle only sounds like a fair matchup in their head, everywhere else Newtonian Physics says "NO".
I've always thought of myself as being slightly above average intelligence, thoughtful but nothing too special. When I see the idiocy on display on the gifs and video clips that I see here and elsewhere, it makes me feel like some kind of genius. The guy in #1, he's trying to block an SUV with a pushbike. First question, why, why are you acting like such a jerk? Second question, how did you imagine that you were going to come out on top in this confrontation? Then he comes over all indignant when the SUV drives over his bike, what the fuck were you expecting would happen?
#1 with the car/bike/sidewalk seems a very popular one today. My thought is it like the jerks driving just above the speed limit on the highway in the left hand lane, especially the ones that maneuver to keep another vehicle on their right to prevent anyone passing. They seem to think that it's their job to prevent other drivers from driving over the speed limit. But are they cops? No they are not. And they encourage bad driving decisions like passing in the breakdown lane or road rage.
The guy with a bike doesn't have any special authority to prevent that car and driver from traversing the sidewalk, it's none of his business. Maybe the driver has a pregnant woman in the car, maybe no one would give him an opening to get out of his driveway, or maybe he's just a jerk. That driver would have been better off getting out of the car and busting the bikers nose, what he did with the car could be considered assault with a motor vehicle.

#1, kind of like coming to a gun fight with a knife

That's yurup, on a bike path so I'm kinda with the bicyclist here. Was the car's obligation to get out of the way.
DeleteThere is WRONG. And, there is STUPID.
DeleteDriving a car on a bike path is wrong. There should be a hefty ticket for that bit of misconduct.
Trying to stop a car with a bicycle is STUPID. He is lucky to get away with only a broken bike.
#1 "Is Russia, biggest vehicle has way of right." Plus it's a BMW and all over the world BMWs are driven by jackasses.

ReplyDeleteMaybe that he would get his fucking car off the sidewalk
