Get trained at text reading. I didn't said i didn't get training i said i don't have a license. Those are two somewhat related but different things.

if YOU gentlemen would stop using your cars and bikes to go on the grocery store two blocks away and either go on foot or ride a bicycle yourselves, you wouldn't be so stressed out and gas prices wouldnt be so high.

To OP.

I agree with you, and am amazed that 90% of the replies are Pro-biker.

I grew up until 16, in, and still regularly visit Maryland and DC in the USA. And I have never seen more of these ass hats in my life anywhere else.

It really drives me nuts.

I'm 22 now, And I will still get on a BMX bike and floor it down the road, But I know I am not a car.

I bike down the sidewalk, Where non-car-vehicles belong.

I hate running up on a mf trying to ride a bike down a road with a speed limit of 45mph. I hate thinking about all the horrible accidents they could cause, Simply by getting their shoe laces caught up in the gears I've done it as a kid, If a car had been behind me, I probably wouldn't be here today.

Even bike lanes **** me off, Because of those I had my license plate removed from my car once by a college police officer. (Passed a car in the bike lane as said car made a left, upon being pulled over 3 cars do the same exact thing I did.) Apparently people were getting hurt too often by cars running them over in the biking lane, ON THE BIGGEST COLLEGE STREET IN THE CITY. I was actually drinking a 40 ounce beer standing outside a house one night on this street, and I saw a moped get nailed crossing the street by a car doing about 20 pulling a left onto a side street, IN THE BIKE LANE.

I wouldn't EVER bike down that road, Knowing how many drunk and inebriated college students drive up it every day.

I'm gonna stop ranting, but omfg I am with you my friend. I am with you.

That's the critical mass event. Frankly, they got what they deserved.

Law enforcement clearly isn't doing its job. In some cities, these rides are done monthly. I firmly believe that in any situation where the police should intervene but don't, it is the DUTY of a citizen to intervene in their place.

I personally would choose two people either side of a road with some barbed wire at strung at chest height running in the opposite direction to the movement, but a car is fine too.

What part of "lawless police state" are you having trouble with?
