This person is an idiot. I get fuck cars and all, but yeah fuck your life too I guess... 1 blind merge and crunch there go your legs. If you want to cycle on the road, that's fine, just follow the rules of the road. They are written in blood. Honestly I'd have zero sympathy for this person if I heard they got run over and killed...
Jesus, that's a bit rough. I mean, the death stuff - why say that? I understand you're being hyperbolic but - again - why put that out there? Noone deserves to die for riding through traffic, what a thing to say...
True. No one deserves death for riding through traffic. But if you choose to ignore basic safety rules, then you don’t get to claim innocence when your safety is compromised.
People literally died to get these rules in place.
The rider didn't break a single UK traffic law
Maybe if three or four more people say it, it will sink in.
The cemetery is full of people who had right of way, just saying.
You’re working from your gut feeling. The official advisories that cyclists should filter forward comes from data. Don’t be a putz; lurk moar.
