> Working on the road does not give you priority on the roads.
What are you even talking about?
Of course it does. Look at any construction site next to a road where trucks are constantly stopping and cranes are operating. They’ll have part of the road cordoned off, or otherwise under their control.
Signs that say detour / pedestrians use other footpaths.
If there’s a heavy vehicle parked & unloading you don’t just fucking absentmindedly cycle full pelt in to the back of it, do you?
Multiple categories of road users literally share thousands of roads everyday all over the world.
Every day, millions of road users, drivers, pedestrians, cyclists go around cyclists and wait for pedestrians to clear the road before proceeding.
I don’t know what planet you’re from, but the roads are literally a shared resource for the benefit of all.
Share the road.
I’m also open to the possibility that maybe I’m just a cunt.
- saagarjha 5mo agoYou're being kind of rude right now, yes. You can present your points without being annoyingly patronizing. When you do construction, or any other event, you need to actually ask the city to put signs down monopolizing the road. It's not just there for you to take it. This is because the road is there for cars and bicycles and sometimes pedestrians too. Obviously the nature of being a person capable of thinking means that I should not walk/bike/drive into the intersection just because the light turned green if I see someone blasting through it anyway. But that does not mean they should be there, just like people are not supposed to park in the bike lanes.
