sometimes i wonder... even if there are laws and stuff like
that, would it matter?
it is against the law to go through a red light, yet a maniac
going at about 150 T-bones a taxi, killing the driver, the taxi
driver and his fare...
a week later, a drunk driver does exactly the same thing at the
very same junction, this time luckily, no one was killed
what the yammering would do is to cause the idiots in power to
enact unenforceable laws...
the motorists need to be more mindful of other road users...
and the cyclists need to remember that they do not own the roads
either...
i've almost hit cyclists going against the flow of traffic when
cars need to turn left to join the main road.. one would be looking
right for traffic and the last thing anyone would be looking out
for would be a cyclist going against the flow of traffic, behaving
like he owns not only the road but the pavement...
and i've come across cyclists who flipped me the bird even after
i safely passed them, giving them enough space.. i think they
expected me to follow them slowly at 30km/h?
there needs to be more care on both sides..
and cyclists need to stop bloody riding in places where they are
not supposed to ride like corridors, void decks, markets, pavements
and footpaths
I believe that cyclists should be made to learn the highway code
before cycling on the road, but how is that going to be
enforced?
