Disgusting excuse of a cyclist 🤷‍♂️

[brommieinkorea]

I'm slightly reluctant to comment on this thread after being rounded on for daring to suggest that yes, some cyclists are a menace to other road users/pedestrians etc in other threads.
There does seem to be a herd mentality for some that cyclists can do no wrong because cars are so much more dangerous and cause way more deaths(which of course is very true).

However, people are people. Be that on a bike or in a vehicle. So you'll get idiots in both cases.

I think need to judge the action of the individual not the form of transport they use.

As for horn use, sometimes I'll be given a gentle toot by a passing car on a backroad after I've moved over to allow them to pass. Technically illegal use of horn but it's fine by me and appreciated.

Bicycles ARE vehicles. Posting otherwise indicates anti-bike bias, even if it is subconscience. Didn't read the other post, but that bias could be what upset other forum users.

Ive said it before, but it bears repeating.

People are born as peckers, and don't suddenly become one, metamorphosising like Dr David Banner the very day they buy a car/bicycle/e-scooter etc.

Except I haven't said bikes aren't vehicles. I differentiated between the two for sake of this thread.

As for anti bike bias. Give me a break.

Remember Failing Grayling, the then Transport Minister, who claimed cyclists didn't count as road users?

Enough. Locked pending a tidy-up.

Noticeable that there's been no sign of the OP since he started this shitshow.
