This was intentional and targeted.

Hit and run also. If you want we can even hit ‘em with the old “driving in the bus lane” violation.

People who do this deserve the harshest attempted manslaughter sentencing we can offer.

If only there were like 2-3 more cops around I’m sure it would have stopped it /s

This was intentional and personal.

Comment posted in the original post confirms this…

> The victim was @ontheblockwithsoho the popular McDonalds axe guy. The driver allegedly intentionally did this to him because he told him he drives like shit.

“popular McDonald’s axe guy” is such a bizarre phrase

I don't know in what universe do people consider a crazed lunatic who destroys a McDonalds with an axe to be "popular"

Maybe “well known” would’ve been a better choice of words.

Did McDonalds ever consider using him as their PR guy “We axe our competition and even ourselves “

Why does he have to be known forever as the McDonald’s Axe guy ? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Karma is a bitch. He destroyed a McDonalds and now has no bike.

HEIMDVLLR t1_j6nnat7 wrote

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, according to his IG, he has three open cases.

_switch360_ t1_j6o9eeb wrote

Because we live in a delusional bubble where everyone is a victim. This guy is a bad dude and probably said some crazy stuff to the car’s drivers. The driver was wrong, but karma always wins.

HEIMDVLLR t1_j6oc3hx wrote

Facts. If you scroll through his IG, he has a lot of “bad luck”. Looks like this wasn’t the first time someone hit him on that cargo bike and check this out, this is where he mentions the three open cases against him.

Doesn’t make it any better , but is kind of ironic when the crazy attacks another crazy

The old saying goes - you fight crazy with crazy.

I know more than one person who has fought off a crazy by acting like an even bigger psychopath

Interesting, but irrelevant to the crime. Driver had no way of knowing anything about him.

This is horrible but why did I have to know that it’s two tons?

Die-Nacht t1_j6ldr4v wrote

Because we're all living in this weird daze, where we seem to just accept massive, heavy things are moving through our streets at high speed, being controlled by humans. And said humans only had to prove they could go around a suburban block, and not hit anything, to get license to drive such things.

When you stop and think about it, it's really a crazy world we live. And it gets even crazier once you realize 2 tons is on the low end nowadays.

A daze which may, in part, have to do with the emissions from said machines which are known to negatively impact cognitive function in humans :(

That's the way it's been for a recent period of time in human development and will probably be the case for the forseeable future. Humans do a lot of insane things.

That's a bus behind the car. Weren't they outfitted with front cameras last year to catch ppl in the bus lane for ticketing? I'm sure if that bus has one then finding this vehicle should be somewhat easy.

People Assholes that drive in New York are rich enough that cash bail wouldn't affect them.

I am not sure that is the case. There is a huge amount of welfare that goes into NYC. But money or no money. Cashless bail will have everyone out in a few hours

I’m not defending this maniac at all but bikers gotta stop mouthing off and picking fights in the city. I used to be the kind of person who would loudly tell people who were breaking the law or doing stupid shit and over the years my wife has ingrained in me, over and over, the idea that none of this is worth it because you never know who has a gun or a knife or the fragile mental state to do something crazy. As far as I can tell, every person with a car basically has a bike-destroying/life ending weapon and the bikers are all too vocal about their unhappiness when traffic chaos doesn’t go their way, whether the situation can be helped or not.

Nope. Watch the video. The phone might have explained the first charge. The second charge is pretty clearly just rage.
