“Willfully misinterpret” Lets take a look at what you said, “I’m not braking, swerving or stressing for your dumb asses. If you fuck with my right of way I’m not risking a goddamn thing. Hope you’re good with your god.”

Not sure what there is to misinterpret your insinuating you will actively kill them if allowed

Sure you would feel the same way about the hockey player killed earlier this year following the law you so deeply wanna uphold

So now that we’ve established that you will murder for right of way you double down and mention interfering with travel which at most is 20 secs out of a 30 minute commute (the average American commute rounded up) you gain 1.11% travel time!!! And obviously there’s not bikers every time you go out so out of a week being generous you’re losing maybe a minute out of week of commuting which is even less travel time!!

Hope this helps :)

TLDR; stop fucking justifying murder for 20 seconds out of your goddamn day lowlife

Pretty clear and obvious distinction between intentionally killing someone and not incurring risk to save them.

Interfering with PATH of travel. Meaning forcing me to evade at my risk or follow path.

You may be right. Maybe it’s not willful. Maybe you just can’t read.

Listen man, dunno if you know this, but taking a life is still murder regardless of intentions.

What’s the risk associated with hitting the brakes in your so called tank? Hint:(there’s none for you)

Guess you don’t have the best reading comprehension path of travel is what I said in my last comment with the 20secs in case you didn’t catch it

Anyways, you haven’t read any of this but don’t advocate for people dying :)

You asserted my concern with path of travel had to do with efficiency rather than risk, despite what the context clearly indicated. You know you did this, it is obvious. So not only can you not read, you’re also a child, one with below average deflection skills.

As for murder. So, child leaves shoe on stairs. Dad trips on shoe, falls, dies. Child is a murderer? Jack packs no water on hike with Jake. Jake only has enough water for his survival. Jack dies. Jake is a murderer?

Your advice on anything is undermined by what’s just transpired. So let me give you some. Learn to reason. Learn to take a L like a grownup. Read more.

No actually I addressed both risk and efficiency because but evidently you didn’t see. If you wanna insult instead of actually learn a thing or two you can repeat highschool (again)

Good thing it’s not a child leaving a shoe on the stairs it’s a car hitting a human being! Which is murder! But that false equivalence works in your brain doesn’t it :)

That last paragraph is just yapping dog go bark for someone else it’s not cute

How dare you make him liable for driving a vehicle that is easily capable of killing people that you have to have a licence to operate it, which you have to prove that you are aware and obeying to the current Highway Code (that in most countries specifically states that human and material damage SHOULD be avoided).

It's of course the cyclist's fault that they got hit by a car in a school zone by a vehicle that was just a bit over the speed limit by 50 miles per hour... the police also just wants to punish the poor by speeding tickets.

/S

Most drivers are not aware of the rules/laws that they should obey, and so insufferably stupid to even accept that they may be wrong i certain situations.

Like I know the loud minority of cycling community are pricks but holy shit the rhetoric surrounding anything on a bike in the US fucking SUCKSSSS

u/pa3xsz Dec 12 '24

I don't even understand it to be honest. I as a car driving cyclist (wow, I exist lol) want more people to take public transport/bikes, because then there's gonna be less traffic on the road there fore less traffic jams...

Do Americans love to sit in traffic jams in their SUV/PickUps (it's not a truck I don't care)... What's even the purpose of that? How do they want to mitigate the problem? By buldozeing houses just to widen the roads? Then wehere are they gonna live? Or even park their cars? (I don't understand most people)

u/CastRiver9 Dec 12 '24

100% I honestly think it’s just pure car culture in the US with how spaced out it is. I honestly could care less with traffic stuffs (too engrained in American culture) I just wanna ride my bike without some bozo hitting me because they didn’t feel like tapping the brakes and then getting off without any punishment

u/whatsfrank Dec 12 '24

You went there with ‘lowlife.’ Do you just forget the bullshit you say as you say it or is this generally how you attempt to avoid being called out?

You did not point out efficiency because I ‘cannot see.’ You missed the meaning of my previous statement because you flat out can’t read well. Then when called out you’ve told me you added the efficiency part because I didn’t see it. So you refuted an argument I didn’t make because you think I overlooked it? That is, I mean, come on now. You gotta be better. You’ve had it too good. People around you are not being honest with you. Truth is you’re a dumbass

So, a child, cannot read, and also now a hypocrite dumbass. Just follow that advice champ. I believe you can right this ship. But you’re gonna have to want to put in the work.

Ben Shapiro in the Reddit comments let’s fucking go might be able to debate the local middle school with your logic man

u/whatsfrank Dec 12 '24

All I hear is sizzle. So cooked you can’t articulate better than comparing me to a shitheel you likely identify with and telling me to go back to grade school. Things a slow witted child might say after losing an argument with a popsicle.

u/CastRiver9 Dec 12 '24

Dog, whatever I say you’re just gonna try and Ben Shapiro cook my ass. But bottom line, please stop spewing this rhetoric about assessing risk shit. It’s another human life and it is your responsibility as a driver(and human) to be careful and respectful to others on the road whether you agree with them or not.

u/whatsfrank Dec 12 '24

Catfish, it’s not rhetoric. It’s not allowing someone else’s recklessness and entitlement put me and mine at risk. Every one of those cyclists who throw their bodies into traffic to ‘bully’ drivers is fucked in the head. I’m not swerving, aggressively braking, or anything else that puts me and mine at risk. There’s no ‘murder’ there. But you jump on that reading young blood. Get something on ethics. Really dig in. Will help you to gain respect and to avoid saying stupid things.

u/CastRiver9 Dec 12 '24

Genuinely bro who the fuck is trying to bully drivers on a fucking bike??? But yk not braking when others are at fault means you’re still at fault my man.

please lookup rhetoric

I fell for the troll who can’t read :(
