I can't stand complaints about "sledging"

Anyone who steps on a sports field that can't take the jibes should not play sports. Its part of the game. If anything it should make you want to win even more. Nothing but crybabies nowadays.

People can take jibes. It's making fun of people who are deceased that annoys people, etc

A fella did that on me where he parked next in the queue and then went and paid so I reversed into the carwash and then got out an went and paid.  When I came out again I put the toekn in and sat on the wall reading the paper until it was finished then jumped into the car as if I hadnt seen him.

So, no consideration for others. Your mammy must be proud.

Maybe he's grown up in the past twelve years.   

Although, judging by his Liverpool thread contributions...

That's enough internet for today!

Cars breaking red lights.
I've noticed it getting steadily worse of the past few years but I saw 4 cars break a red light this morning that was already red a few seconds before the first car broke it.
I have often got a green light only to have to stop to avoid hitting a car that has broke the red coming from the other side.

Hate people who don't use the pump furthest away. Some gimp sat waiting on a car leaving the forecourt. So I waited behind thinking he'd take the one furthest as it was also empty. But no the dodo just went for the nearest one and there wasn't any room to pass. I end up looking like a dick as there was a wee queue developing into fiveways having to manoeuvre into the pump on the other side and stretch the hose over my car Which I don't like doing. Such bad petrol station etiquette

A red light means "stand by for three more cars to go through." That's my standard response to the "cyclist need to obey the laws" crowd in the online comments under any article about cycling.

So do you think cyclists don't need to obey the laws?

Of course cyclists should obey the laws. Do you think car drivers should not?

My point is that people in glass houses shouldn't take a dump in broad daylight.

Of course I do, but my first response to someone saying motorists are always breaking the rules isn't to say well so do cyclists.
It seems to be a cyclist thing to bring up motorists everytime they are challenged over the poor behaviour of cyclists on the roads, rather than admit yeah cyclists can be arseholes also.

Your average cycling campaigner could give Sammy Wilson lessons in whataboutery.

[markl121]

I am a cyclist and cyclists can be arseholes. breaking red lights makes no logical sense when the light is red for a reason, usually that reason being traffic coming from another direction so theres a chance you could be killed. I hate also how say a stream of cars has overtook you, then at a light the cyclist moves up through the traffic to the front of the cars again, meaning everyone has to take extra risks by overtaking again, including the cyclists (if you have experienced how some cars overtake)
