An object lesson in keeping your mouth shut...

[Davidsw8]

I was asking Jack. David, you seem a reasonable bloke, why defend your language. Also, an RLJ by a cyclist is not that dangerous for anyone.

Ah ok.

I dunno about RLJ'ing not being dangerous though:

Took 5 seconds to find that one...

no need to call me thick

So, it's alright for you to get defensive about name-calling? Hopefully, you get my point.

Seem touchy to me.

 

[jack smith]

why should i care if you call me thick? do you know me? no you dont... do i know you? no i dont. for all i know you could be someone with no achievements to your name. atleast i am putting an actual input into this thread instead of just trying to slagg off me

 

[GrumpyGregry]

here comes the gender war....just cause you call a woman a bitch dosent make it any different from calling a man a dick, i physically can not stand people who use their, sex/religion/race as a reason the make something sound worse than it is. it's a word. if he went and beat her to a pulp yeah show some concern....

Do you like, literally, fall over then?

 

[jack smith]

Few and far between though

Just responding to the RLJ'ing not being dangerous comment, it's hardly an epidemic but it happens often enough and it's illegal anyway:

Red light jumping happens more than enough and, like you, I wish people didn't do it. In terms of the negative consequences of the criminality though, it is pretty harmless when compared to the huge amount of RLJing by car drivers that seems to be invisible.

Agreed, every time I approach a light that's just gone red, at least one person (cyclist, van, cabby, whatever) zooms through, every... single... time...

Bear in mind you're meant to stop on amber.
