kids on bikes are the worse. fucking use the sidewalk, that 20sp huffy can handle the snow damnit!
You think buffalo is bad? try Chicago.
I made a wrong turn in chicago and was driving through probably the worst part of shit-ago and guys were riding their bikes right at me, I was driving a 3500 diesel with a trailer so I wasn’t stopping on a dime, and I wasn’t about to slow down either as I probably had $100K worth of snowmobiles and parts in our trailer.
Man they would get pissed at me.
eh. bikes are not supposed to ride on the sidewalk. i always ride my bike on the side of the road, especially in the city. Usually you’re moving faster than traffic anyhow…
Most of you have paintball guns for what???
i meant like kids coming home from school, riding in the middle of the street all “cool” cuz theyre with their friends, road bikers are fine with me, half of them can keep up with city driving anyway lol
Yeah until one scrapes up against your car, goes down and sues your ass…
I hate anyone who rides in the street when there are sidewalks available. And they always tend to be so far off the curb/grass too.
meh, i have a truck, if they bump against me its game over for them.
i hear ya tho, sue happy people.
it’s illegal to ride a bike on the sidewalk, i believe.
i like to play chicken with these people. they’ve always moved in the nick of time.
i think it’s more of a “I’m to tough for the side walk so everyone can move around me”
it is. and bicycles also have to go WITH the flow of traffic.
Even when they are just crossing the street, t h e y m o v e s o s l o w.
I swear it is some power/control thing. And it is always the “ghetto” people. I am not being racist, I mean ALL ghetto looking people. In the burbs, people almost run across the street, except the ghetto looking white kids in Springville. I think their baggy pants will fall off if they move too fast. lol
I scared the fuck out of that kid the other day. Standing in the middle of the road making cars go around him to impress his ugly girlfriend. He had his back to me so I popped the GTO into neutral and coasted up on him at about 30 mph. When I was real close his girlfriend saw me and screamed, at which point I nailed the brakes and the horn. I stopped plenty short of hitting him (I’d never risk actually hitting the kid to prove a point), but I was close enough to see the true fear in his eyes when he turned around and dove for the curb.
:tup: to the Aussie’s putting a seriously loud horn in the GTO BTW.
they are known as social renagades.
I’ve been told by people it’s so if someone comes out to jump them they have more time to respond. Or it’s less likely to happen if they aren’t as easy a target walking past bushes and stuff on the sidewalk.
Meh, you’re getting worked up over nothing.
Just hit your hydraulics and bounce over them. Oh, you don’t have those?..
i’ve nailed their elbows before. I don’t care. i know you heard my trans am, it’s plenty loud. GTFO of the road. jesus. this is one of my biggest pet peeves.
I hear ya Newman. I see it all the time in williamsville too by the office. I had some lady scream at me and flip me off because i got somewhat close to her while making a right turn from evans on to essjay because she was jogging in the street when there is a perfectly good sidewalk 2 feet away.
Also what kills me is the fat people can’t walk or ride a bike on the proper side of the road. When i was younger i was always taught to walk against traffic and ride with it. Now every where i go everyone does the opposite. Did they change the rules and not tell me or are people just that dumb?
Lol! No shit.
i fucking hate people who walk in the fuckin street. im just going to hit the next fucking person who walks in the street whos not in the fucking crosspath. and i hope they fucking live just so they can try and sue me for something that was there fucking fault.
my truck gets a lil loud when i get on it because it downshifts so i usually just floor it it gets loud and they move except in the hood, they dont move till the last second there
good job!
