I'M sick of these thugs

[virgo]

I see myself firstly as a mtb,  but I train on the roads more often than not.  When I drive, I'm always on the look-out for EVERYBODY else on the roads - cyclists, motorbikers, cars, trucks, etc.

 

I was taught that , when driving on the roads,  you always keep looking out for anything else that moves.  For safety sake.  I do the same when I cycle.

 

I'm also certain that most other people (I think almost everyone else) use the roads in the same way.

 

Unfortunately, if 1% of people are idiots, ALL people get classified in the same way.  I agree with Holy (I think it was you?) that said it worked when we were taught as kids about road signs, safety, etc....

 

Fact is that discipline and respect for others are not big in our communities. Just about all problems stem from that.

 

That is what needs to be addressed.  Back in the days, even hanging didn't stop people from killing. Why would fining cyclists stop the problem? It is not about the punishment  -  it all goes back to discipline (especially self-discipline) and respect for self and others.

 

We should raise our kids properly and set examples for others.  Clubs should take more responsibility with enforcing rules. Make sure the club members are constantly made aware of what is right and wrong. Repeating rules act as constant reminders.  Maybe even visual, shocking tactics, e.g. photo's of accidents.  In other words - scare them into behaving

Yes there are way too many cyclists riding like idiots in dumb places. Motorists on the other hand are a law abiding bunch. All mountain bikers are also law abiding and never break any rules' date=' not even when they get off their bikes and into their cars.

I am so glad we have all finally figured out what is wrong with South Africa. I am so pleased to know that all our problems are caused by a bunch of softy, faggoty scared of water roadies. As these lycra clad moffies are so stupid, weak and incompetant it should be easy to catch them all and remove them from society. I suggest we use the mountain bikers for this as they are superior with bigger friends and should be able to sort this problem out

I am definately thinking concentration camps. We can get them to clean the muddy shoes of mountain bikers and so on. A "fate worse than death" as the late great Spike Milligan once said.

Concentration camps. We can put them on indoor trainers all day and hook them up to the power grid. Kill two birds with one stone.

good plan, edman! then we can get some cattle prods from the cradle's ken, and jab them every time their output drops below 400 watts.

Cyclists moaning about cyclists on a Internet forum.

Go stand at any intersection.

 

Within 30 minutes you will have ALL of the following:

Car skipping robot

taxi turning left/right in a non turning lane

taxi driving in the yellow lane

BMW driver chatting on his cellphone

At least two chicks that will chuck their cigarette buds out the window

pedestrian crossing while not allowed

cyclist skipping robot

Littering from pedestrians

So PLEASE..........FFS.....PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????  stop bitching and moaning on Monday about the MODE OF TRANSPORT USED and use you brains to figure out it is not WHAT you drive/ride but rather the TYPE OF PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

South Africans on avg are self righteous, inconsiderate, rude biltong vreters that has NO respect of his fellow human being.

 

Sadly this will not change.

Agreed, However, I see on my daily commute, that far more regular cars break the law than do taxis... Sorry, but its true, and its usually well off (judging by the cars) white people that break more laws than your average taxi.
