Just because the speed limit is 40 doesn't mean you are required to go 40. They are following the laws. A car can drive 5 miles an hour down a road with no min speed limit and you just have to deal with it. Maybe you should understand the laws better. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Sad, but that's what happens when you ride your fucking bike in the same lane that CARS drive down. I swear, here in Atlanta cyclists will literally ride in the MIDDLE of busy roads like 141 with no care in the fucking world. Half a mile of cars backed up behind them, literally, I've seen it first hand. Not a fuck given. Fuck cyclists. Really? They have just as much as a right to the road as anyone else. This is where cycling laws are lacking. It should be illegal for cyclists to even be on roads where they can't maintain proper speed. In the city where roads are 30-35mph they can be a minor problem, but any road with higher speed limits they should be banned outright. Using cycling logic I should be able to walk slowly down the middle of the highway holding up traffic for miles.......................

Sad. Come November, in OK, distracted driving due to phones is a primary offense - so there's that. I don't imagine it will stop texting while driving - it is worth noting though. lol, cannot wait for the GD threads from the cop haters.."pulled over for texting..what bullshit, fucking revenuers" |

Fucking right I'll cry about it. Why? Ride in the fucking bike lane, assholes.[/span] The bike lane literally travels directly along the road, just 4 feet over where you're not backing up traffic. Is it too fucking hard to move 4 feet over to use your OWN lane, or do asshole cyclists just get a[span style='font-weight: bold;'] kick out of backing up traffic[/span]? Quote HistoryQuoted:

On the road? Goddammit right. I have to get a fucking license then so should cyclists. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Quoted:
I have nothing personal against cyclists, however, they should be held to the same standards, rules and regulations as drivers. Same goes with scooters. If I have to pass a test to get a license, as well as take a state mandated course for having an endorsement on my DL for a motorcycle, then so should cyclists and the "I had 10 DUI's and lost my DL and bought a scooter" asshole. There should be .gov mandated tests/licenses for everything, right? On the road? Goddammit right. I have to get a fucking license then so should cyclists. Ride a fucking bike - no license, no registration required. Certain types of vehicles don't require licenses - get over it. Are you going tell CA farmers they no longer have exemptions from CDLs for Class 8 "farm trucks" Mr. If I have to get a license so should you? |

How is this even the same thing? Where is the wide load or tractor supposed to drive? A bicyclist driving down the middle of the road is just an asshole. So you're OK with being delayed by a 5mph 5000lb vehicle that you physically can't get around but by god that skinny ass 5mph bicycle better pull over so you can pass. The fact that both vehicles are doing 5mph is irrelevant. The fact that both vehicles are legally authorized to use the lane is irrelevant. |

Fuck inattentive, incompetent drivers. Hopefully she faces at least manslaughter. In before we rejoice in the death of another cyclist. ETA - Cyclists should all have a daylight visible tail light to try and tip the odds a little more in their favor. http://www.roadbikereview.com/reviews/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Flare_11.jpg yeah, I am going to have to get one of those... Past month there have been two cyclists hit in my area and I have not been on my bike since.. 
In one instance the cyclist was going northbound and the driver was going southbound. Not sure if the cyclist was on the wrong side of the road or what.. |

Texting while driving should be something you get a beatdown for.
Texting while driving and then killing someone should be automatic prison. |

Causing the death of another due to being impaired by alcohol drugs phone texting etc should warrant a loss of a driver's license forever and a murder charge period.
You wilfully chose to impair yourself, suffer the consequences. |

I live less than a mile from my work. It would be great to take a moped, bike or walk. I would have to travel down 2 3 lane highways and cross them. Nope. If you bike on a highway you are testing fate, it's only a matter of time.

I live 3 miles from work. I would love to bike it but would end up being killed by a crappy driver. Stands to reason why there is so many anti cyclist guys in this thread. GD isn't known for its fitness level. their fat and statists at heart. I lulz hard when they mention how cyclists have no right to the road because they don't pay taxes or fees to the govt. its terrifying that so many gun owners are statists at heat |

You know that they are idiots when they are riding right at you. The best part is when they run redlights and stop signs because it would take to much effort to get back up to speed. About 10 years ago a cyclist was killed right in front of me. He was riding on the shoulder and came to thr stop sign I was at. He blew right through it not realizing that it was a two way stop at a four way intersection. Tahoe broadsided him at 50mph. |
