Until cyclists realize that:
A) Dosent matter if you think you are traffic, if you whip out in front of me and I hit you, you still die, Im fine. I cant stop in the same distance you can on a bike.
B) That past and current city planning of roads for the most part never took cyclists into account
C) They need to obay trafic laws if they "are traffic too"
the above will happen as pissed off drivers finally loose their cool. I know a few people who are avid cyclists, and I have yet to meet one with any respect for the vehicles on the road. I'm not saying what the driver did was right, but certinley there is a part of me cheering him on. Finally someone did what all drivers wish they could do while stuck behind the illigal traffic mob knows as critial mass.
Learn to follow the rules of the road, or stay off them, its really that easy. If you are riding correctly following the rules of traffic, you would be in much less danger and get far more respect from the drivers on the road.

Then I honked repeatedly and finally just held down the horn and tailgated them until they moved the fuck over to where they belong. Pocketbikes are illegal to operate on vancouver roads but somehow all these skinny fags on their motorized bikes are legal? It makes me smile everytime I see a bicyclist get hurt. Sometimes I go buy bags of gardening stones and sprinkle them over bicycle lanes.
If more of you were proactive towards bicyclists like me, we wouldn't have a problem. I wanna buy a RHD just so when I have an annoying bicyclist next to me, I can pop the door open and knock them on their ass .. while driving. It will most likely be a JDM rx7 FD. If you love rotaries and mazdas, and hate bicyclists, or if you just hate bicyclists, I have a paypal set up at ihatefagbikers@gmail.com, please donate and help me buy my RHD to wreak havoc on these bikers.
Thanks! | Your the fucking man! JDM rx7 FD bike crew??? XD

i don't care what the general concensus of a car forum would be..but that was the biggest dick move ever.
how is it any different than hurting unarmed protesters?

Finally someone steps up to the plate and does something (albeit dangerous) about this. While I support the need for what they call "equality" on roads with cars. This critical mass bullshit has to end. Yes you have rights on the road, but to act like douchebags and ride as if you own it? That's where drivers get pissed off.
If this happened in Vancouver...the backlash would be ridiculous, but I for one wouldn't feel that much sympathy for the bikers (except the ones who get seriously hurt.), they brought it on themselves.

Wow, that guy is my hero! He probably seriously injured a lot of those people who appear to have been holding a non violent protest on bicycles. Maybe some of those people will be vegetables for the rest of their lives. That'll teach them eh?
While he's at it, he should fly his car over to one of those middle eastern countries that are holding protests and run over some of them. All they are doing is driving up the price of oil right for us anyways. They're making it more expensive for the rest of us to drive our cars everywhere! Bastards...

So many delightful comments, this reinforces the thought that the western world makes for an atmosphere where people choose money over there personal integrity. Quote:
