I started cycling again a few years ago.
I avoided taking the lane while I started, but after being forced into the gutter and nearly side-swiped multiple times, I started regularly taking the lane for my own safety.
That’s what really disappointed me about motorists as a cyclist - you give them an inch and they try to kill you.
- Gigachad 3y agoThere is something about driving that sends otherwise normal people in to a psychopathic rage. If you were walking and someone steps in your way, you wouldn't immediately jump to punching their head in. But same thing in a car and people will just run you over for slowing them down.
