I've done this in my head so many times.

Other cyclist at :38 decides it's not worth it and runs away.

Seriously, why are bicyclists self-entitled assholes on the road? I ride motorcycles and neither I nor anybody I know or have seen even approach the levels of dickery that they pull off.
Good to see one get checked, as horrible as that is to say.

fractured - 2012-02-18 I like to think that bicyclists are just working it out. Drivers bend the rules where it suits them. We don't have to be puritanical about it all.

The Mothership - 2012-02-18 yea, that broken leg and broken wrist will teach him to ride slowly in front of a bus.

EvilHomer - 2012-02-18 Well, he certainly won't do that again, that's for sure.

paranex - 2012-02-18 He was stopped at an intersection and had only begun pedaling. It takes a second or two to build up momentum unless you're doing track stands. It's sort of a catch-22 in that situation, if you stop at stop lights, you end up slowing down traffic, but if you ride through it, people flip out like "OMGZ HOW DARE THOSE CYCLISTS DISOBEY TRAFFIC LAWS!!!!"

Old_Zircon - 2012-02-18 I've seen bicyclists do some pretty douchey stuff but the worst of it doesn't even begin to approach the baseline level of douchery that a large portion of car drivers start from duting rush hour. MAybe I'm jsut biased because I've driven in Rhode Island and eastern Massachusetts a lot, though.

sosage - 2012-02-19 You're right. I am just use to seeing what most cyclists do downtown...which is either utilize a bike lane or move to one side so traffic can flow around.

Mancakes - 2012-02-19 Can we still be friends? Go draw a hot bath and have some nice tea with it so you can calm down about the bad man that posted on the internet.

People should be allowed to cause grievous bodily harm to each other on the road if they feel the other drivers and/or cyclists are not deserving to share the same roads! Nothing whatsoever could go wrong with this idea!

I know that vigiliante justice is looked down on around here, especially for something as minor as being a douchebag on a bike, but that was pretty sweet.

Except that this is in Britain where cyclists are encouraged to ride to the front of the lane, ahead of cars. That's why if you look in the foreground of the video, the next intersection has a bicycle symbol at the stop line. That's where the cyclist was standing at the beginning of the video.

Thank fucking god I don't live in Europe. I get pissed at people only driving the speed limit. We're ENTITLED to go 5mph over motherfuckers.
|
SolRo - 2012-02-19 Be honest, you drive 25mph over the limit.
|
Void 71 - 2012-02-19 15mph over the limit is the norm where I live. Otherwise, you better be driving in the right lane.

So apparently he took out the cyclist because the cyclist yelled at him for driving too closely behind:
