What happens when a cyclist breaks the speed limit?

You are incorrect. If I had wanted to aim my post at anyone individual I would mention that person.

Ah OK, so you'd rather just stick to ambiguous insults to other members so that no-one can call you out on it. Gotcha

No, you'd be wrong about this as well. As I see no point in becoming involved in "arguments", for want of a better word, I prefer only to quote posts which I agree with. If I disagree with points in a thread I try to post in a general manner. I most certainly do not insult people.

Without looking back there are two specific points I can recall you made; you ride a yellow cargo bike pulling a trailer and you use a camera.

Any opinion you may have posted I couldn't identify specifically with yourself. That's not to be disparaging or unpleasant but simply how I chose to post.

So what would call implying people who have posted here are selfish, self-entitled and inconsiderate? Banter? Light hearted japes?

No. It would in my opinion be an accurate description of the approach some choose to take. Just as it would be for the attitude of some drivers.

As I've already said I don't like to get involved in these discussions on a personal level. This is the direction this is headed so I won't be responding further.

According to Wikipedia " An insult is an expression or statement (or sometimes behavior) which is disrespectful or scornful. ". I suspect calling others self-entitled, inconsiderate and selfish would be considered disrespectful, but perhaps that is just me.

No, you just like to vaguely imply insults towards people yet despite the obvious definition of the word claim they're not insults. Anyway, have a good day I guess.

He will not stop. He is the terminator of Cyclechat. Although I don't think Arnie relied upon Wikipedia.

Back when Arnie worked in B&Q I asked him where they kept the paintbrushes.

He said: Aisle B. Back.

Pedestrians, just like cyclists, should be entitled to make mistakes without being flattened.

Well, if I flatten them when they assume I'm doing 5 mph and walk out in front of me, at least they're not going to carry on to their car oblivious, assume that I am doing 5 mph, and flatten me.

Very good 😟 Did he then work in Dominos and say “Hasta la pizza” to let you know to wait till it was ready?

I think that any thread where someone quotes a definition of a word from a dictionary or wikipedia should be automatically locked as it indicates the thread has entered the final level of Dante's seven circles of hell.. Surely it's a simple bit of code to write

And on that note I think that time is up for this thread since it has become more about personal disagreements than the question in the OP.

That's all folks. Move along.
