Angry Stupid drivers who don't yield!

Holy ****, when I was leaving the school riding on my mountain bike, since the school is located at an intersection. So riding down this slant with mud going to cross the street (Kennedy), the walk pedestrian light was on so I continue to ride, than this ******* van makes a left turn so I was almost went ride on to the passenger door! It is wet, I applied full front/rear brakes but it didn't do much so i had to get off the bike and stop with my feet. I swear people these days...

They are in a car, with heating, no snow blowing in their face and they can't wait. Another rant, stupid people crossing the road when their is a LEFT TURN LIGHT! Holy **** people can't wait for people making a left turn, instead they must wait in the island!

You know that by law you are supposed to get off and walk your bike across a crosswalk.

Man, you sure do love complaining!! First you complain about high beams coming into your eyes in your "2002 CRV" and now you complain about bad drivers. Afterall you were supposed to be walking your bike across the street. Dude before you start complaining, get your G2 and then you will realize how stupid people can be when crossing streets. Not to mention the J- Walkers. Next time post something other than your complaints.

Exactly - so when you get a car you can complain about drivers.

I am in 100% agreement. Stupid bikers never follow the rules, just cause they're not in a motor vehicle they classify themselves as pedestrians. There are bicycle laws too, OBEY THEM!

it happens all the time....
but you do know, god forbid, that if it resulted in an accident, you would be charged?

you always have to make sure that it is safe to turn, no matter if its green, amber or red.

i think if the guy is running a red then he would be at fault.

Well if you are B*tching about how people should drive their cars and obey the rules. You should of been wearing a helmet and walking your bike across the street. So don't complain. So what the vans bigger than you. You did a wrong and he did a wrong. no B*tching is required.

Actually both drivers are considered at fault. I had an accident with this situation when I was younger and both drivers are charged. The car that ran the light is charged with running the red light, and the car turning left is changed with an unsafe turn.
