Guest Smimby Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I am riding in the yellow lane, and where the have to turn left lane starts I go straight as I am going straing and not turning, at this point a car speeds up and physically push me left.I ask the driver, why did you do that...."ride to the left"I respond, but you were behind me and I am going straingt? SO surely I should be in the left of the straight lane?Am I missing something?Here is a picture, the red line is me, while the car is forcing me left, the driver was 1 inch away from my handlebar.So where is the 1m rule, and should I start breaking the laws?
Cois Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I get that every day I am on the bicycle.Even started shooting them with GoPro.Still have to post their picks on FB and twatter... Think it is time to start breaking car windows.
GLuvsMtb Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 It happens to me quite often. These days I stay in the centre / right of the left-only lane.
Guest Smimby Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 It just shows that these people do not know the road rules. What pissed me off is that this idiot sped up JUST to push me of the road and then stop at the red light?
Cois Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Let me just explain this.This nurse passed me. This is in the yellow lane. The lane next to yellow turns left and goes on straight.She drove in the yellow line, honked at me to get out of her way (still in the yellow lane) then she passed me on the right and proceeded down the yellow lane.Nd she got very angry when I took the photo and tried to reverse her car into me.

"Then be careful" he says? HUH? I am trying to be careful and adhere to road rules...............

Guest Smimby Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I am considering putting sharps pins on the ends of my handlebars, then if they come to close their car gets damaged, maybe they will learn?

I FLY Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I am considering putting sharps pins on the ends of my handlebars, then if they come to close their car gets damaged, maybe they will learn? My elbow got hit by a passing car's side mirror awhile ago. Luckily for me I "sensed" the impact and tightened my grip. The car lost its side mirror but the driver did not even slow down or stop to check if I was okay. Maybe we should have those blades fitted to our hubs like the chariots used to do.
Guest Smimby Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Not really man.....I will come of 2nd best
