Im sick of cyclists.
They have bike lanes but rarely stay in them. If there is 2 or more of them they ride side by side rather than single file.
Its time bikers stay paying rego to use the roads
No way is that a bike lane.
Geez she was quick to demand his details wasnt she?
He asked if she was alright, went to help her and she demands his details.
Quite a carry on about this on facebook today. Most people seem to siding with the man in the taxi, although its still unclear whether he's legally at fault or not.
From what I can gather (if you can believe what you read on facebook) its definitely a gutter, not a bike path. Bike paths should be 1.2 metres wide, the gutter is quite a bit less. So he probably shouldnt have got out where he did, but then you dont expect a cyclist to be speeding down the gutter either.
Apparently he's "assisting police with their enquiries"
Most people are pretty peeved with the cyclists attitude, he straight away apologised and she bit straight back with wanting his details and "its all on camera" its like she was hoping it would happen so she could prove a point.
I dont mind the cyclists, or motorcyclists even, passing the stationary cars at lights and getting to the front. But using a bit of caution wouldnt hurt. Motorcyclists usually get between the lanes of cars at a slowed down, safe pace, but cyclists just keep flying along. Often when they get to the red lights they ride straight through along the pedestrian crossings too. Its about time some clear laws were put in place I think.
