The bigger the load on the mobility scooter the further it'll take to pull it up to a stop. If she was anything like the person in the pic I posted she learned that lesson about momentum, or should have!

Physics to people like this is something you take for constipation, not a force of nature.

Bicyclists who act like the sidewalk exists as a bike lane, even when there IS a designated bike lane on the actual road, and get all indignant at having to share with pedestrians.

And those that insist on riding on the one lane (tight for one car even) parkway when this city has nice wide bike paths RIGHT THERE next to the road.
:dalek:
 
I actually thought to myself this afternoon...I should not be driving!!! not because I was all impaired or anything!!!) ...every thing was making me want to fly out of the car and rip somebody's heart out it was everybody today!! i would like to get through the light too you know!! Oh and ..I'm being nice by stopping to let you walk across to go into the store..(pretty sure maybe That's traffic law and tech I should... but.. that doesn't mean you walk as slow as possible... oblivious..and not even acknowledge that it's rude...and not nice...and.you're welcome...oh and really? 15 MPH when I'm 4 blocks from home so it feels like 2 hours?:rolleyes:

That, and the cyclists who when there's a bike lane insist on riding on the road disrupting traffic flow.

I see I've pretty much duplicated the good reverend's post. Ah well, you get that on the big jobs...
 
Sometimes the bicyclististas are so damn bad about where and how they are riding, you can't pass them on a MOTORCYCLE! (street bike - some of our crotch rocket brethren might try)
 
ah ha!

'round here, it is law that bicyclists can take up to a full lane for their own safety. I'm all for that. Truly, I am. But when you have a bike lane available to you, or a whole path dedicated to bicycles not ten feet away, it is rude and *other expletives* to take a lane.
 
yeah, it is rude. to be honest i really don't understand why people do that, get on the sidewalk. well once a police officer almost gave me a ticket for NOT being on the sidewalk...
 
It's different wherever you go. In Minneapolis, one of the, if not THE most bicycle-friendly city in the US, will ticket you for riding on the sidewalk. You are not allowed (undernormal conditions) to ride on the sidewalk.
 
i see, i mean LA is a bicycle friendly city, i just don't understand why they make up so many laws that they sometimes enforce and sometimes ignore. kind of pisses me off too...

As it should be. You could really hurt a pedestrian if you were on a bike and collided...

My rant; I fed my kids pancakes and they are higher than kites from the maple syrup. Ooh well. Could be worse.
