I’d say those extended cab pickup trucks with those big smokestacks, they’re literally made that way to blow smoke in people’s faces, pollute the environment.
Mind you tell me what is your car?
I didn't see it mentioned so I'll say it: Smart. Where I live, they behave like they are riding a bicycle.
OP's mom's car for sure.
Honestly, one of the nicest guys I have ever known is a retired copper.
He joined up in the 60s as a smelly hippy (his words) to "bring the system down from the inside". Very quickly discovered he could change peoples' lives for the better and retired 45 years later having considered his career a success.
He estimated that 4/5 were like him, but the rest are tossers (again, his words).
This thread is fucking cringe. Get over yourselves.
Bicycle.
Yesterday while driving on a two lane road with a bike lane there were two people on bikes. What appeared to be a man and a woman in full brightly colored garb and helmets. Both were weaving in the bike lane and/or riding on the dividing line between the bike lane and the road. At one point, as a few cars were approaching them from behind, one of them whips over into the center of the road for no reason other than to block traffic thereby forcing the overtaking cars into the oncoming traffic lane. There was no obstruction on the bike lane. The other rider proceeded with weaving about unpredictably. She simply couldn't stand the idea of someone safely passing them and forced an unsafe condition for everyone involved....
Can't Understand Normal Thinking.
I pray that every bike she every rides has a slow leak in both tires no matter how often it is patched or replaced. The more time she spends off the road pumping up the tires, the less time she is endangering herself and others.
Rarely is someone on a bicycle and not an asshole!
For pulling out into the lane, it may have been called "taking primary".
If the road is not wide enough to pass them safely, that is the best place to be. That way drivers cannot try and squeeze through. Obviously, I cannot speak for the precise road conditions where this happened, but it is legitimate in certain circumstances. Traffic calming is a good example, as it makes the lane too small for a safe overtake. Add in the fact that most cycle lanes in cities are more dangerous than the main carriageway and you can see why cyclists will take the prime quite often.
That's where the problem lies..... in that particular area the bike lane is plenty wide enough for two bikes to ride side by side and the main roadway, in both directions, is plenty wide enough to not crowd the bike lane. No reason whatsoever for her to move out of the unencumbered bike lane and block the automobile lane which forced everyone attempting to overtake into the oncoming lane. It WASN'T a no passing double line so it was a safe place to take the oncoming traffic lane if it is empty of traffic. She was clearly playing stupid games. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes or fuck around and find out both apply and if she keeps up with that type of action then most certainly some day she will find out what winning a prize is all about. Of course the automobile driver will be the one at fault for driving in the main traffic lane and not avoiding the asshole on a bike.
