Oh yeah, “Critical Mass” in SF...

It’s Bushes Fault.
I can’t stand cyclists. If you can’t drive the speed limit, get the heck off the road.
I cant stand bicyclists. Until they start paying taxes for licenses and inspection stickers like car drivers have to do, then get OUT of the street and get your bike on the sidewalk.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the driver of that van lived out a hidden fantasy of millions of drivers that day.
I think our road could be more accomodating of bikers. That said, it’s a major annoyance when they clog up traffic. My state has a law where a vehicile must pull off of the road if five or more vehicles are backed up behind it and it is impeding traffic.
A law, needless to say, that is never enforced.
Where's an earthquake when you need it, to open up the earth and swallow up the moon bats.
Never bring a bicycle to a van fight.
Go ahead, bike boy, make my day
How much you want to bet this guy is a faggot?
Maybe the driver thought he was in a Clint Eastwood movie
These cyclists ignore the traffic laws and drive en masse right through stop signs, red lights, etc. They dare the cops to stop them. The cops just pretend it doesn’t happen out there. A few weeks ago they terrorized a mother and her children in a minivan, breakng windows out and scaring the children horribly. These guys are thugs on bikes. In my state, they’d get shot for this kind of thing.

What does “dozens of cyclists” mean? 36? 150? 500?
One of the leaders “said the cyclists had a green light when they entered the intersection, but he did not know if the light had changed before they’d all made it across the street.”
In other words, there were probably so many damned bikes that they expected traffic to sit there and wait through several green lights. I don’t object to bicyclists, but they have an obligation under the law to stop for red lights and let other traffic go through.
It used to drive me crazy when messenger bikes zipped through red lights in NYC during the rush hour and never even looked to see if cars were coming.
The poor queen is one giant victim on the road.... The Man just won't leave him alone!
I hate bicyclists. They need to decide if they are traffic or pedestrians and stick to it. However, they want the best of both worlds. They want to ride in the street, and then if there is a lot of traffic, red lights, stop signs, etc. they jump up on the sidewalk, etc.
I’d love to drive a van threw a whole swath of them if I could be certain I wouldn’t cause serious injury.
Critical Mass does this routinely, frequently riding in violation of the laws of motoring and common manners. The intent of their rides is to take over the streets from automobiles. Provoking/creating/inventing an incident is part of their M.O. The fact that their ‘taper/spokesperson’ says the P.D. blamed them for this one is a good indication of whose fault it was.
That's all that I needed to read.
