[CONSOLIDATED] Errant Cyclists Thread

[tanbrave]

let's see what the LTA / SPF going to do about this young chap ...

if the old lady needs to seek medical attention, this fellow has to foot the bill ...

he should be taught a lesson and not let off scott-free ...

It's going to be a regular features on the shared lane.Si ginna cannot go Scot free,Mata cases then,only way.

When rules are gray, I’m not surprised

who have priority, not spelt clearly

did the bloomer walk on the pedestrian lane or cycling lane?

if she's on pedestrian lane and the cyclist go and bang her, he deserves to be charged

but if it's on cycling lane then no need to pity

Near bus stop usually no designated lane

When there is an intent to overtake cyclists will not care about the safety of others? Then on the road why motorist need to care about cyclists? Also just overtake, knock down 1 cyclist and life goes on KYM? Cyclists knock down pedestrians is always cyclists wrong like vehicles knock down cyclists on the road.

Think that sound like bias leading to everything cyclist also cannot do, do also wrong.

Safety is for everyone. It takes both hands to clap. There are bad eggs among cyclist and pedestrian also. Often saw that most of the time cyclist do slow down and give way, if not slowly pass by. Its a give and take thing between pedestrian and cyclist. If really drop the bias, would have notice so.

That is why should not have shared lanes unless LTA willing to put people to ensure active mobility users use shared lanes properly.

Worst is those dumb cyclists that ride fast thru bus stop where bus passengers are alighting

 

[lightningflash]

Char siew cyclist

 

[Orionsat]

Many pedestrians in their own world while walking also. Never look where they're walking or whats infront. Worse listening on earbuds and/or watching phone.

And then you have reckless cyclists. Boom.

My side got those walkways that have construction works. So the temporary walkway is narrow. Cyclists are supposed to dismount and push. You have idiots zipping fast and ringing the bloody bell for people to give way. How to bloody give way? Press the whole body against the wooden board at the side so the bloody cyclists can go through?

and it goes on and on and on...
population increasing.. places getting more and more crowded.. more will come..

 

[Unclemun]

Sometimes ah old people stubborn don't want give way also and die die walk middle of big path. 2 hands to clap.

I see some parents let their baby running on red bicycle path. If later tio langa who wrong again?

The faster party and behind should exercise duty of care. In this case, it is the cyclist.
People don't grow eyes at the back.

Ya ... ring loudly from behind expecting pedestrians to give way to them ... really self entitled to the max

 

[beano]

Cyclist can cause drivers to get fined and lose license.. really king of the road AND pavement

 

[mickey88]

Share of lane is the most flop idea..shd sack the idiot that thinks of it

 

[coolmyth]

Not the first incident like this. Won't be the last either with so many peepur squeezed here.

 

[buttbERry]

This kind of preposterous behaviour must be condemned with at least 3 EDMW threads!

2 threads only where got enough?

is like that one meh?

 

[ST Optimist]

I think all cyclist need to take highway code.....to the young chap ....he think he got right of way so he is in the right.....
Not wrong....not right also.....in a car lane you have right of way ..does not mean if you see someone walking on the road you can knock him down.....you still have to slow down and give way

 

[SaintPeachie]

If not call ghosts buster?
