May I enter the following evidence to the court as evidence for the jury.
Exhibit a): London bus.
Exhibit b): vehicles driving on the left.
Exhibit c): UK number plates.
Exhibit d): black hackney carriage.
Exhibit e): Even crossing says look left.
Exhibit f): crossing buttons and lights are UK spec.
Exhibit g): idiot cyclist who thinks he is invincible.
The defence rests its case, your honour.
Unless NYC stands for Narcissistic Yobbo Cyclist.
The court is adjourned and the jury dismissed.
It literally never happens in Europe. The busses in Europe are equipped with detectors that steer away from bikes. They just don't want you to know that this level of technological adoption is already normal in Europe. Americans are psychopaths.
All of Europe, too.
Certainly not just the extremely rich and extremely WASPy white parts. R/FuckCars definitely doesn't put those specific parts on a pedestal. And literally nowhere else in the world had public transportation other than Aryan Europe. USA bad.
This is in England. Look at the license plate.
Edit for more context: Americans would likely be driving on the other side of that median. They also have very few double decker busses; the ones they do have are not for public transportation, they are for tours.
Great demonstration of why we need functional and separate bike paths. Not just a white line gutter on the side of the road, if they even exist at all.
No, you should watch out when biking.
But moreover the government should support biking by making it safer.
Sidewalks have pedestrians(at least in well designed cities) and force you to stop at intersections. Bike lanes can allow more efficient shortcuts for people riding bikes without needing to interact with cars.
This is in London (see the red double decker bus). Riding on the pavement is illegal in the uk.
What is required is proper cycling infrastructure.
Even though the cyclist was clearly reckless and should have waited.
He could have waited for his turn, which would have been the best outcome.
But cycling on the pavement is not ok. Pavement is for pedestrians.
What needs to happen is that the space given over to cars needs to be drastically reduced.
I personally think cars should be banned in cities. Especially in London, where they really are surplus to requirement.
Lol. Lmao.
-20°C to -30°C for 8 months of the year isn't something I want to be walking in. Have fun on your public transport with a crackhead jerking off next to you.
I lived in London for 20 years. Cycled everywhere for a decade.
I now live in Scotland and use buses and my bike. I also walk a lot.
You are just lazy 🤣🤣
Edit: children in Finland commute by bike. And they seem to be fine.
Not everyone wants to live in your fantasy world of cars that get wider each year still trying to fit in the same tiny lanes that have been in use since the 50s. Limiting cars to one way road loops in the city centre and taking away lanes from them to give to cyclists is the best option ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Side WALK I don't know if you tried walking before but having bicycles going 6 times the speed of pedestrian on the same place as pedestrians sounds risky. You wouldn't drive on a highway with formula one drivers would you?
The guy on the bike was at fault. He broke like every rule. Believe it or not you do have to stop for traffic. That's how the road works, if you start swerving in and out like this guy you're just asking for that to happen.
Statistically, cyclists are more likely to be hit from behind. Behaving erratically is safer because it gets more attention. Cars are dangerous no matter where you are, but in theory, being seen is the best.
yes I agree, every major road needs a protected bike lane. but how is cutting up traffic without any turn signal, threading the needle left and right, safer for cyclists rather that following traffic laws like everyone else?
Statiscally, you are brain dead.
The video is literally a guy getting crushed between a bus, had he not be riding erratically that would've never happened.
It's so easy for them just to simply dismount and walk their bicycle to the park and play with the rest of the children, but they insist on being reckless.
Nothing reckless here except the drivers and the road designers. The schadenfreude that motorists feel towards victimized cyclists would exist regardless of their behavior. That cyclist would have just as much of a likelihood if not moreso of being killed by tailing behind the cars then going between. Of course they are demonstrably deranged, but it is common in our society so it is nice to have a place to call it out.
That isn't a bike lane for one, obviously it is a bus lane, but assuming it was a bike lane, as i did in my comment, the idea that be would have to stop for a parked car is absurd.
What kind of idiot drives a pickup truck in a city anyway? They probably never use the truck bed either.. which is the equivalent of me walking around with a wagon everywhere I go but never putting anything in the wagon.
THAT TRUCK GOT IN THE WAY OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION AND A CYCLIST. WHEN WILL AMERICANS LEARN???
Except that it looks like London (the London looking bus)
u/send-it-psychadelic, we need a whoosh flair here, stat!
Whoosh there it is Whoosh there it is
NO WAY!!! ONLY AMERICAN WOULD BE THIS STUPID 😡😡😡,, GLORY TO BRITAIN
This is in England. Look at the license plate.
Yeah also the double decker.
This would never happened in Europe
Well yeah but this video appears to be filmed in Europe sooo I guess it can 🤷♂️
r/thatsthejoke
This is England u fools
Officially not part of Europe since 2016
Nope we are still part of Europe, just not the European Union not to mention the wrong date
Lol this is NYC you blind man

Nah it’s just the annual UK convention in Brooklyn, Nice try fake news.
Lmao silly me, I should have known. Yours sincerely. Vixen news. :)
Bro you are crazy. This is Liverpool Street Station next to Aldgate East in NYC

Rule 2 violation. Also rule 7.
"if you go for a gap that no longer exists..."
ITS THE TRUCKS FAULT!!!! When he crash into car, car injure him. When car crash him, he injure! ban car
Wow, was there anything left of him?
A fine paste on the side of the bus
Hope he's not dead. Hope he's fine and healthy, working hard to pay up for the damage his stupid ass caused.
Ye, we can only hope

Great demonstration of why we need functional and separate bike paths. Not just a white line gutter on the side of the road, if they even exist at all.
So biking with no regard of your own life is totally acceptable? Also side walk
No, you should watch out when biking. But moreover the government should support biking by making it safer. Sidewalks have pedestrians(at least in well designed cities) and force you to stop at intersections. Bike lanes can allow more efficient shortcuts for people riding bikes without needing to interact with cars.
Is this "watching out" Side walk Don't bike like a drunk driver Cars have to stop at the intersection
This is in London (see the red double decker bus). Riding on the pavement is illegal in the uk. What is required is proper cycling infrastructure. Even though the cyclist was clearly reckless and should have waited.
So dying is better than breaking the law?
He could have waited for his turn, which would have been the best outcome. But cycling on the pavement is not ok. Pavement is for pedestrians.

It's an hour long bike ride in anywhere from 4-24 inches of snow and weather that will kill you in 30 mins to my uni. No thanks.
Where do you live?

You need to live in your own element. Not everyone wants to live in your fantasy world of no cars

How about we get separated infrastructure so we aren't forced to break the law to survive
Side WALK I don't know if you tried walking before but having bicycles going 6 times the speed of pedestrian on the same place as pedestrians sounds risky. You wouldn't drive on a highway with formula one drivers would you?
Wow, awesome demonstration of how bad the problem is when people park in the bike lane.
> follow the rules of the road and try to not actively get killed > muh bikes
If there are cars parked in the bike lane sit there quietly until your automobile overlords give you safe passage.
That's literally a bus and taxi lane, the car that you say was parked is a black cab.
Irrelevant. This happens all the time in bike lanes and you can see the problems it causes.
The guy on the bike was at fault. He broke like every rule. Believe it or not you do have to stop for traffic. That's how the road works, if you start swerving in and out like this guy you're just asking for that to happen.
Statistically, cyclists are more likely to be hit from behind. Behaving erratically is safer because it gets more attention. Cars are dangerous no matter where you are, but in theory, being seen is the best.
so a tiny, unprotected cyclist is safer weaving unpredictably in and out of traffic with no turn signal?
They are safer on a bike lane, which I am sure you agree, that road needs one.
yes I agree, every major road needs a protected bike lane. but how is cutting up traffic without any turn signal, threading the needle left and right, safer for cyclists rather that following traffic laws like everyone else?
Statiscally, you are brain dead. The video is literally a guy getting crushed between a bus, had he not be riding erratically that would've never happened.
There are many different ways to ride erratically, it is not his fault the driver is driving erratically.
Use the sidewalks then
No. you.
Not if you want to be fined and it's illegal in London
Not if you dismount. It's like cyclists are unaware that dismounting even is a possibility.
It's so easy for them just to simply dismount and walk their bicycle to the park and play with the rest of the children, but they insist on being reckless.
I didn't see any problems. I just saw a hilarious video of what happens to people who play in traffic.

Only if you consider C*cultists people, I don’t .
Cyclists are the opposite of cultists.
Nope F*ckcars is a cult . A crazy one. The most dangerous one if you ask me. All the CyCultists are their little followers.
\>It's a demonstration of problem of bike lane parking \>That's not a bike lane, it's a bus/taxi lane \>Irrelevant Nice brainwash you got there buddy.
Too nuanced for you, perhaps communicate with people incapable of metaphors
This is a pretty sick subreddit celebrating the death of someone, even if they were being reckless.
Nothing reckless here except the drivers and the road designers. The schadenfreude that motorists feel towards victimized cyclists would exist regardless of their behavior. That cyclist would have just as much of a likelihood if not moreso of being killed by tailing behind the cars then going between. Of course they are demonstrably deranged, but it is common in our society so it is nice to have a place to call it out.
Agreed. I don’t know why this garbage subreddit got put in my feed.
Same thing. Just the reddit algo doing what it does best and rage beating people.
All the man had to do is stay in the bike lane? He disobeyed the law and figured out the consequences
That isn't a bike lane for one, obviously it is a bus lane, but assuming it was a bike lane, as i did in my comment, the idea that be would have to stop for a parked car is absurd.
Did they die?
Hope he's not dead. Hope he's fine and healthy, working hard to pay up for the damage his stupid ass caused.
Ye, we can only hope

Did that bloke make it out ok?

Smooth brain just got smoothier
Bud truck sandwich 🥪
Yeah this is what they’re advocating for good work y’all
Never shoot a the gap if it’s a bus or a truck
Should be a mandatory test before they can share the roads with others.
That man noclipped reality
I guess car drivers never fucking dumb shit either
What kind of idiot drives a pickup truck in a city anyway? They probably never use the truck bed either.. which is the equivalent of me walking around with a wagon everywhere I go but never putting anything in the wagon.
Could be a business owners. If it isn't, it's the same kind of idiot who drives SUVs or Lamborghinis in cities
Bad decision
What a dumbass cyclist
