At one point, I was turning right but had to stop because the car in front of me couldn’t go, either, leaving me half turned in the right lane. The bike behind me did not want to stop because cyclists should never have to stop, apparently. He went around, but he also kicked our car. What an asshole.
The best I could do was yell at him. I know it’s so unlikely that he’ll ever experience consequences, though. It’s far more likely that he’ll experience consequences for never slowing down or stopping.
Bikes are supposed to be treated like vehicles, and I do that. But much of the time they don’t treat themselves like vehicles. How often? I should probably start counting. I see cyclists running red lights and changing lanes without signaling and going between lanes all the time, though.
I support pro-cycling policy, but whenever I notice a cyclist, they’re doing something that makes me say you motherfucker.
