When I'm filtering, I let my mirror scrape cars that didn't leave enough room for bikes.
Lol wut. If a car doesn't let me cross even though I have the priority as a pedestrian, I usually hit the side mirror or the car. They can go fuck themselves with their overpriced rolling boxes. People get so mad when you touch their cars. I like it.
You don't even need to cause any damage or even leave a fingerprint and they get so angry. Its kinda funny.
I see so much road rage, but usually from extended family so I try not to start an argument that will lead to someone storming off in a strop. I find it funny that an adult can get so angry, but it upsets my partner.
There was a fight between 2 security guards for different gated communities when I lived in the US. One wasn't letting the other go through the gate and "slapped his hand on the hood", causing the other to get out and fight him.
I often walk or cycle past a school and a daycare, and here they have recently "upgraded roads" which means that they have scraped away a few pedestrian crossings. I 100% do shitty tricks to cars driving too fast or not giving enough space, especially if I am moving around the time kids are active. (Around here kids are still allowed to walk/cycle from school and often play around the town.)
I have made air kicks, always do when necessary, but sadly so far they have missed..
You're an actual psychopath and you should be locked away before you kill someone
Lol, if touching a side mirror gets you that angry you need to look in a mirror and think about whats wrong with you. Also I'm a carpenter, I most often have my tools with me, I could do way worse than "hitting" a side mirror if you really need something to get upset about. I bet you get half hard looking at your rolling box ^^
Unpopular opinion: Cars are expensive. Vandalizing them in response to an inconvenience seems like an overreaction.
It’s symmetrical though. Sort of like a pedestrian risking death if they inconvenience car drivers
Sure, attempting to murder a pedestrian over an inconvenience is also bad.
Not sure I'd consider them "symmetrical" though... Maybe I'm being pedantic, but murder seems a lot worse.
Regardless, both are overreactions, and varying degrees of crazy.
Cutting the priority to pedestrian isn't an inconvenience tho. It's straight up code violation. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be a priority for the police 🤷🏻
Oh, I see. It still seems like an overreaction to a code violation though.
True. However given that they're the largest "lifestyle" contributor to climate change (as opposed to things in the agricultural sector), vandalizing one in response to it simply existing seems like a slight under reaction, if anything.
A medal for meritorious public service and right of first refusal to carry out the sentence against the ecocidal narcissists? That'd be a well deserved surprise for any non-carhole who's been making carholes angry.
Yeah. That's exactly what I'm talking about. Carbrained psychopaths look a people crossing the street and think: How dare they make me wait a few seconds longer. I'll fucking hit them with my car.
And they think that's a proportinal response. It's just deeply sick and twisted.
...on purpose, just to cause a reaction. You missed that bit.
When i'm driving vehicles i have to qualms waiting for elderly or disabled people to cross the street, regardless of whether or not the crosswalk has a light.
Dipshits intentionally walking slow just to piss me off deserve to piss off someone who gets out of the car and demonstrates their discontent in a more direct manner.
If you want to label dislike for lack of civility as being a psychopath so you can feel better about yourself be my guest.
I’m going to walk slowly in front of three cars just because you made this post. It’s the only reasonable response to your lack of civility.
Seriously, you’re advocating getting physical with someone because of a perceived lack of civility — literally walking too slow. I drive almost everywhere, have done so for decades, and this is not a problem I’ve had, even once in my life. If "people walking too slowly in front of your car" is a regular problem for you, you may need to cultivate more patience. You have lost the plot. You sound like you are the problem in this social interaction.
You don't get to hit them though.
Thanks for adding more evidence to support my central thesis: good people don't drive cars.
Fucking drivers thinking they can assualt people with their cars becase they've been inconvenienced
Mirrors are so breakable..
