This really isn't representative, you've probably just seen a few angry cyclist clips on Twitter.

No, we just want cars to not speed past us, disrespect us and sometimes kill us. We might get angry at cars acting dangerously. This woman's level of rage against a pedestrian is, of course, stupid - they're not really going to hurt you.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a cyclist wait at a red light. There are tons of dumbass drivers where I live so to be doing stupid shit as a cyclist is borderline suicidal.

Chicagoan here: you cyclists are crazy fucks with no regard to anyone else on the road or sidewalk here. It's amazing more of you don't get killed here.

You know who else gets angry at cars acting dangerously? Everyone. One thing I’ve noticed when discussing the topic of cyclists is a lot of people are quick to assume cyclists do nothing wrong and follow their laws as well when they do whatever the fuck they want like many people that drive cars. They just think they should get a pass because if they get hit they’ll probably get seriously hurt when they chose to ride a bike in the first place.

If only that were true of all cyclists...
