Is there a more terrible road user than a bicycle rider?

>>13887453
Other drivers are far more of a nuisance/danger.

Drivers who get analblasted from bikers

>>13887453
Is it OK if I ride a bicycle in the mountains on dirt trails? I promise to never ride on the street.

>>13887465
>>>/n/ is that way if you want your MUH CAGER echo chamber

Anyway, women drivers in general.

>>13887453
On the one hand, they're pretty annoying

On the other hand, they make a noticeable difference in traffic (at least in my city) and they're way less likely to kill me when they fuck up compared to another car.

>>13887483
That difference would remain if they were to have a motorbike. And they'd also be more stable and quick, both due to the engine.

Plus due to the engine noise they wouldn't ride three abreast on a thin country road because they want to talk about how much of a trio of cunts they are.

>>13887483
the bicycle riders are more suicidal in my city

riding against the traffic makes them invisible to drivers getting in the street

>>13887477
It was fun biking to work all summer, it was a 10min bike or a 10min drive because I couldn't cut through the bus gate. All cars were terrified I'm going to be an asshole so they stopped way to early and let me go.
but its only nice for like 5 months where I live

BMW drivers

>>13887453
I think the main thrust behind your reasoning is that the nature of a bike does not necessitate knowledge of the road code
however being on a bike requires a different set of skills chief among witch is the ability to be aware of and predict traffic flow

as for bad drivers
>old
>Asian
>woman
the paragon of inattentive driving as they barely even notice the road let alone anything on it
reckless drivers are another thing all together as they act on limited information and over very short time spans

by far the most irreverent behaviour I have seen are motorcyclists and courier van drivers
with special mention going to drivers with hats or sunglasses

Nigger drivers are the worst

>>13887453
Old people.
Women.
Non whites.

Just like how most of the drivers who are out there suck at driving, most of the cyclist out there suck at cycling.I try to stay the fuck away from other bikers when I'm out. Those fucking wanna be fucks who spend 2k on a bike just to support some cancer race are the worst.

Damn bikers, sometimes they're vehicles, sometimes they're pedestrians.

>bikers are not mandated training or licensing to use roads, but car drivers are
>bikers are meant to know and follow all local road traffic laws, but there is no legal requirement for them to prove they know road theory because they don't need a license
>bikers don't need insurance to cover at minimum any affected third parties, but car drivers do
Bikes should not be on the road in my opinion.

>>13887453
Asian women drivers, death incarnate on the road.

I'm a biker and I hate bicycles,

The mistake most people make about cyclists is to assume they don't also own cars, because they generally do.

Sorry mate, cyclists are drivers with one more hobby than you :^)

How hilarious it would be if that dumbfuck got rear-ended and the car was relatively fine but the bike got crushed

Truckers in northcarolina. 2/3 trucks all throughout the day that i see have been stanced/lifted/added hydroelectric/given LEDs everywhere and never turn off their high beams. Also my favorite is slamming their breaks everytime they hit or are about to hit a break as well as trying to swing out the back when parking. Maybe its just my area thats like that.

Why does it have to be equivalent when it causes so many deaths?

That's some pretty dank shit desu senpai.

Bikes are a hazard, anything that forces me across the double yellows so I can go 55 in a 55 instead of 10 in a 55 is a hazard.

>>13887453
The problem you're having isn't due to cyclists - it's due to assholes on two wheels. I'm fro the Netherlands, we have the natural layout (everything's flat), infrastructure (completely seperate cycling lanes), and most importantly, eduction for cycling. Education is especially important, already starting at a very young age, throughout primary school, to make sure kids acts safe on two wheels, and most generally stay riding safely. Even when they're not completely obeying the rules of traffic, they usually check if they're not impeding any motorised traffic, because that would be dangerous.

And then there's 80% of those spandex wearing assholes. God fucking dammit. Riding five abreast (when 2 is the limit), slow as fuck up a tiny hill, not indicating, not having any lights(front or rear), no bell to warn you they're coming if you're on a slower bike. Plain assholes. Pity on the countries that don't have a cycling infrastructure, and only have these faggots riding around.

>>13887990
See above, it really does work if you train people to use bicycles properly. The insurance point is kind of moot, you're not going to cause any material damage that's bad enough, and actual injuries can be covered via health insurance.

>>13890219
>it causes so many deaths?
You mean bicycles, or cars? Bicycles rarely cause any deaths.

>You mean bicycles, or cars? Bicycles rarely cause any deaths.

Just because the cyclist didn't kill someone by riding his bike into someone doesn't mean that when they get hit that they weren't at fault when they get hit. It always seems to be that the driver is at fault for hitting a cyclist when they do the dumbest shit known to man. I had a cyclist flick me off because I honked at him. I couldn't fucking get around because traffic was insane and he was blocking the road so I honked. He just looks at me for a minute, I honk again and he flicks me off and continues to hold up traffic.

I swear to fucking god if I had something in my car to throw at his ass as I passed him I would have hit him in his fucking head. I had previously thrown away my melted cup of McDonalds ice coffee I never finished, too. I still regret that to this day.

if i can't legally ride a motocross bike on road then muh carbon fibre super light cant have extra wiring because racebike shouldnt be legal on road

>>13890265
I agree completely. It's a major hazard having to cross into oncoming traffic just to make progress around those cunts.

>>no headlights
>>no tail lights
Agreed.
>>no brake lights
You need to slow down for cyclists anyways. Compared to a motorised vehicle, they're almost stationary objects, making brake lights kind of redundant.
>>no indicators
My indicators work fine. Pic related. Every road user should know these signals, including car drivers. They're quite handy when your actual indicators break down, and completely legal.
>>no roadworthy test
There should be a standard on what should and should not be on a bike, so mandatory brakes and lights, and no pointy objects, no loud mufflers on metovelo's etc., but I don't think a periodic inspection would make any sense. Just create a standard to which each cyclist should adhere, and make officers able to write fix-it tickets.
