Reply to comment by Sarcofaygo in Brett Smiley looks to change / eliminate bicycle lane on South Water Street by Locksmith-Pitiful

If they’re choosing to pass when there’s a car coming in the other lane, then it’s the drivers fault and I hope they get in an accident

Very sane take. It'd be much better if they kept driving straight ahead and collided with you instead, right?

Nope! They slow down and wait 5 seconds. I know it’s a super inconvenience to have to wait a whole 5 seconds; but if you can do it, you’ll be saving your life and the other driver or cyclist

So that the car behind them can potentially ram into them instead? Still a collision potential. All because you want to play in traffic

If the car behind you is so close that they hit you for SLOWING DOWN, not a full stop, then they’re way to close😂 I can do this all day my dude

Lmao at you thinking it'd reasonable for people to risk car accidents so that you can weave in and out of the traffic lane

You’re lumping all cyclists into the “wheelie boy” category. Some of us do actually follow the rules of the road

And I’ve been hit by dumbass car drivers who have pulled out of side streets, without stopping at the very clear stop sign. There are idiots everywhere. It’s not dependent on what their choice of vehicle is
