This. Maybe only take the license for a few months and make him do a new test. The fact he argues shows his disregard for the rules he agreed to follow by operating the a ~~dangerous weapon~~ vehicle
Fitting he's in a Benz.
Why is it always the kind of person you think it's gonna be? I mean, always. One can match the level of inconsiderable idiocy from car models alone.
Imagine knowing you're wrong and persist and insist this much in continuing to do the wrong thing in front of everyone, so that everyone can behold the thing that everyone knows that is wrong for you to be doing, and you still continue to do the wrong thing that you know that everyone knows that you know that is wrong to do. No? Hurts your brain, doesn't it?
Now... Why is his license plate blurred in the video? Does this level of inconsiderate behaviour deserve that level of consideration in return?
Why is his license plate blurred in the video?
Especially when he read it out loud lol
Thank you for pointing that out to me because I really missed that.
That does make blurring the license plate hilariously futile. Well, unless people need to go get their ears checked or cleaned like me.
Thanks again. You gave me something to laugh and something to worry about.
Cheers.
My observation is that the more expensive the car, the more entitled the driver.
It's Science: the fancier the car, the shittier the driver.

See? It's not bigotry - it's observation.
Audi were running billboards a few years ago with the slogan 'Born To Lead' - I thought to myself 'is that why they never let you merge in front of them?'
I don't like making generalisations...
But...
I agree.
There is absolutely an observable correlation there. And mentioning exceptions will only prove the rule.
I was hoping the cyclist would lose his balance and fall on the hood of the car when he was rammed. Not that I want the cyclist injured, of course, but damage to the precious car? I'm all for that.
I had a road rage incident while I was out riding yesterday - I was in the middle of the lane passing some pedestrians. Note, this is a country road, and there's no sidewalk or even shoulder. It's a pretty popular cycling route, but it's the first time I've seen people walking there (I'm not even sure where they were going). Some jackass rolled up right behind me and blew the horn, as I was next to the pedestrians. I gave the "what the hell" gesture, then after I passed the pedestrians, I moved closer to the right edge of the lane, and he swerved over to run me off the road.
Set a few PRs after that incident. lol Later, the rear derailleur cable broke, and I got rained on, so the end of the ride was less great than the rest of it (which was a pretty good ride aside from those incidents).
Kinda hilarious someone blurred out his license plate but the cyclist reads it out and that was left in.
Good to see he was not left alone.
This is such a hero villain situation. Bravo to those cyclists who stood their ground.
This is bad design. If a bike path is large enough for a car to get on it and it is next to a road with bad traffic design that holds up cars you should be able to anticipate someone will create a problem. So you should add some vertical columns in the center. Not very many of them because that's a nucence. Obviously a clear trail is preferable. But two or three polls will make this a non-issue.
I had someone do this recently in Central London. I swerved on my bike but the truck behind stood their ground.
I don't understand why he didn't get a U-lock in the teeth. Honestly, though, he's attacking cyclists with his car, and he got to leave completely uninjured and with no damage to his vehicle.
Then the cyclist gets hit with an assault charge. Police response looked prompt and legally correct from the video, so absolutely the right call to handle it completely legally.
What is this criminal class we allowed to fester!? We need to report all of these scum, don't let any get away!
At first I thought surely this is staged for the video (what social media makes us question these days) but the police showing up made me believe. What an idiot driver.
Classic entitlement and ego. In different scenarios, Darwinism would remove the drivers genes from the gene pool
