  • Scumbag on a bike sticks a finger up to the law, jumps every set of lights, whilst his cycling buddies proclaim car drivers are the real menace. That said I'm hardly a fan of car drivers, I like bikes/cyclists more, but they're way too fucking righteous and need bringing down a peg or two

    Light the blue touch paper and watch the cyclists try and defend him. Could be interesting

      +sean sean Well it would be more interesting if you could tell us what your road designers have been doing in the last 50 years. But since I doubt you will be able to I can try defend this cyclist. Light the blue touch paper!
      First he is filtering to the front. Stupid English rule. But he is allowed to. Besides this motorcyclist is completely in the wrong lane and you don't find that a problem.
      Next he ignores the light for cars. He is crossing simultaneously with pedestrians. Just like often is the case in the Netherlands. You know, the country where they don't have a clue how to keep people safe.
      Then he cycles around the turning car. I really have no idea why is would be safer to to cycle in front of turning cars??? He is 'filtering' anyway. Seems smart to me to let the car turn instead of let him wait.
      Finally he hops onto the pavement with no harm done whatsoever for a free left turn. It eliminates the risk of being cut off. And you have a much better vision or eye contact with traffic from the left. We Dutch like that concept. So cyclist and drivers don;t have to turn their head like Regan from the Exorcist.
      You see, he may brake THE LAW. But I'm far more worried about all the damn cars and buses and trucks in the middle of the city. And did you know without all the motorized traffic, you would need any traffic lights or signs or anything at all? Did you know that? They are not there to decorate the streets so it looks nice. They are there to stop cars. Or to have pedestrians and cyclists stop while cars are moving. That is what all those lights are for.
      1 Cyclist in the whole video. Ridiculous. There should be dozens of mothers and children riding bikes there. But they can't. Because for them the fucking rules don't work.
      But OK. Bad bad cyclist. In the UK bicycles are the same as cars. So he has to follow the rules for cars. It doesn't fucking matter if he is killed or not. As long you follow the rules then all is fine. We can read it in the newspaper: Cyclist killed. But he was following the rules. Ah that's a relief.
      So there you have it. I have defended the cyclist. He broke THE LAW. I defended him anyway. Call me crazy, but I can understand why cyclists don't give a shit about the rules.
      Now if you can find out what your road planners were occupied with in the last couple of decades, and provide us with statistics about how many people were killed by cyclists, and explain why it is according to you much safer to ride a bike in between buses and trucks, then I will be happy to listen to what you have to say.
      Next video please about shopping trolleys without airbags. They're fucking lethal. People should have licenses for going to the stores. Series of traffic lights would help preventing mass casualties in supermarkets. Yes progress. more rules, more lights, lovely.

      sean sean I thought is was the island of Pulau Sumba in the Indian Ocean. But it is the UK? I see. Yes then obviously you can't expect rules that make sense. That would be too much to ask.
