I had a good think about this on my ride yesterday. Sure as cyclist we roll through the occasional robot or stop street, this is wrong and I acknowledge that. However I dont think it is ever done with criminal or harmful intent. for the most part cyclist are cautious and courteous. There is the odd schmuck that ruines it for us but those cyclists are the exception rather than the rule.

I am not suggesting this at all. But I thougt what if cyclists undertook a week of protest. Nothing illegal but we would take up the road which was allowed to us, thats all, suddenly no cars can push past, there would be chaos on the roads. If only motorists understood how vulnerable we were and the painst that most of us took to riding safely.

What beats me is they don't complain when other motorists jump red lights, stop streets etc. And worse, you can kill someone with a car- its a "weapon" -  if you use it irresponsibly. Shannon de Beer, and many others are a sad case.

LOL - What a joke.! I had a good chuckle.!

 

To answer your question - No you cant lay a criminal case of any type against anybody for voicing their opinion - what next' date=' maybe lay a criminal case against your fellow motorist who showed you the finger and shook his fist at you through the window.!!

 

Its their opinion, who cares, read it, have a chuckle and move on.

Got to say this in Afrikaans if you don't understand i will try to translate so hear goes

 

Jy kan 'n saak gaan maak teen iemand wat vir jou middel vinger wys, dit het iets te doen met poging tot aanranding en Crimen Injuria.

 

No BULLSH!T

Yes, most likely you can, Sammajoor, but, I would say thats A BIT differant to "voicing an opinion", but in the same vein, you really arnt going to get anywhere except, to empty your pocket book.

I also cant see any reason to get all worked up about some idiot, 90% of the time its all bluster and hot air anyway.

.......I think its just a way of letting off some steam.

My opinion...This Shannon person got dumped for a cyclist, and thats pre empted the s#!t storm thats now brewing. Ignore them I say...its all macho idiot posturing, and if something tragic was to come of it, then they'd be right f#$%ed coz everything is in writing for us all to see.

Its also their right to an opinion, we cant deny them that.

Its also wrong to deny them my baseball bat should I ever find out where they live...

it's all well taking over that group, but if you search for anti cyclist there are at least 3 other groups that come up. and it's international groups - it seems that many people don't like us much!!!
