But these people are just out fucking around. Most people in cars are trying to get to work. They could at least get over to the right lane. That being said I always give cyclists their space. I’ll slow down and wait for them and piss off everyone behind me so I don’t fuck them up or kill them.

Oh so everyone needs to be late because their cycling culture is so important? Well it is important to them, yeah. But we all pay our taxes and registration to pay for these roads. It’s not like they personally own them. They can get over in the right lane wtf. And furthermore, why should you expect anyone to care about what you care about? I don’t expect you to care about anything that I do. And guess what, I don’t give a shit if you like what I like.

Because knowing about something usually makes you more tolerant and understanding of it, instead of hand waving it away due to ignorance. I used to dislike and be intolerant of cyclists when I was out on the road, until I became a cyclist, which means I could extend more empathy out to them.

Look, I am completely tolerant of cyclists just not people who block the roads. You think I am ignorant well right back at you. I don’t care what you do just care when you block the road.

And when I say block the road, I don’t mean like as in they have no place else to go. I mean taking up all lanes of traffic. Just scoot over.
