Re: bikers
the dumbest thing i have seen was when i went to school at arizona state. on university they have a bike lane (or when i went there they did, i don't know if they still do) but the bike lane isn't the the far right its actually in between the middle lane and the right lane of traffic and is about 3 feet wide or so. i saw more people on bikes hit by cars when i was out there then i have since. people would switch lanes and not see the biker/cyclist and take them out.

i hate bikers. they want it both ways.. they want to be treated like cars and be on our roads, but then they don't want to follow red lights. a guy on a bike ran a red light today in cambridge and i found myself wanting the guy to be struck dead by a truck or something.. then i thought, how horrible to think that, but come on. obey the rules of the road! [/ QUOTE ] eh, not all bikers are like this, there is just enough of them that give the ones who actually know what they are doing a bad name. |

Re: bikers
You would go crazy seeing how many bikes there are at UCSB. I have a friend that has been hit by 3 cars (I think all 3 were his fault though). On the main road out of campus during a time right after class gets out, I've counted up to 50 bikes just riding down the middle of the road.
Weeeeee.... |

And why do they put the padding in the pants instead of the seat? [/ QUOTE ] It's for when they run a red light and some guy in a car knocks them over and repeatedly kicks them in the ass. Up here when there is an intersection with a right turn lane, the bike lane just goes straight up to the intersection and people turning right have to cross the bike lane to get into the turn lane. I don't know how many cyclist have been run over as a result of that little bit of genius, but I'd bet it's quite a few. Don't even get me started on bike messengers. Talk about a death wish!! |
