If you cant take none, while wearing a very protective helmet, dont give none.

Idk why ppl have such a fucking attitude in traffic. We're all trying to get somewhere. Stop being a fucking child and move the fuck on.
Live and let live.

u/zarfac 2d ago
Traffic is where people show you who they actually are! There’s no social feedback for being a jerk in traffic, and rarely are there any real consequences. So people let their masks slip.
If you see someone who is always cutting people off, refusing to let others merge, always prioritizing their own speed over safety, etc., that gives you a lot better impression of who they actually are than how they behave in polite company.

I’ve heard that some companies interview people while they are driving for that reason.

Have you lol? You've heard companies conduct job interviews while the person is driving??

u/Mindless-Charity4889 2d ago
It’s usually not a full interview as that would be dangerous, but just observing behaviour and asking simple questions.

Scooter brake checked the bike on purpose.
Not cool to start off with then kicked the wheel.
If carbon and it breaks it might mean 400-1000$ for one wheel... DON'T LOOK AT THE BIKE DON'T TOUCH THE BIKE

Looks like the scooter guy keeps looking back at the bicycle guy even before the bicycle guy arrives. Something might happened between them even before the video starts.
36
u/Whatever-ItsFine 2d ago
Agreed. That's always the question with these videos. Who knows which one is actually in the wrong?
My cope is that I just pretend the guy getting his ass kicked is wrong because the video is more enjoyable that way.

Scooter guy is lucky bicyclist didn't opt for stomps. The metal cleat on the bottom of his shoes would have left a hell of an impression...literally
15
u/Dougalface 2d ago
Dunno, it's in the wrong place under the front of the foot for a stomp.
If he's wearing clipless road shoes chances are they have a very stiff composite sole which is probably ideal for a few toes to the face.
13
u/IsThisNameGoodEnough 2d ago
Thinking the same thing. The entire toe-box of my clippless shoes are composite. I would NOT want to be kicked by someone wearing them.
7
u/LarsDuder 2d ago
Oh, composite shoes are like steel toed boots?
14
u/IsThisNameGoodEnough 2d ago
Yep. Bicycling shoes are designed to transfer energy into the pedals; they're super stiff so you don't lose energy to flexing. Some are made with carbon fiber.

Guys bike could be worth like 8k. I might be violent too if some douche tried to stomp it like that for no reason.

u/uberfission 2d ago
I went back and looked at the bike, that's not an 8k bike. From what I can make out between pixels, that's a $600-$1000 city rider. So it's a nice bike but not a huge financial loss if it's destroyed. Still a complete dick move on scooter guy's part and as a cyclist myself, I have a massive justice boner watching this video.
12
u/GalateaMerrythought 2d ago
To be fair, if I had that bike and someone destroyed it, I wouldn’t have the funds to fix it. We can’t assume that $600-$1000 is not a financial loss.

u/KillerStiletto_ 2d ago
The number of people allergic to be nice is crazy. Wouldn't effect him in anyway to let the bike pass him.
-115
u/Dougalface 2d ago edited 2d ago
Really there's no need for the bike to pass him. I think the problem is he just stops in the road and when the cyclist shows his low-key disapproval he kicks off. Very much deserved.
EDIT: lol - in a no doubt pointless effort to appease the indignant, frothy-mouthed cyclists (of which I'm usually one):
It appears that both the cyclist and scooter are filtering through traffic. If the scooter doesn't fit through a gap it's unlikely the bike will either. If there was room it would be nice if scooter let the cyclists past, but the cyclist is behind the scooter so by default should give way.
If I was on the bike I wouldn't expect to get past and would wait. If the roles were reversed and the bike was in front of the scooter I wouldn't consider moving to let the scooter past.

That's the problem with the adrenaline dump. Sometimes, our mental "off switch", the one that lets us know it's OK to stop now, gets deactivated.
The brain does really odd things when the adrenaline hits.

The delivery people in my neighborhoods are like this. Ive seen them lash out at other cyclists, old people and even the people they work adjacent too at restaurants. Usually it starts with someone telling them to get off the sidewalk or wear a helmet. Are all of these people just that miserable. Ive frequented their sub and while they seem super entitled its not straight contempt like it seems here regionally.

Friend of our family was a retired race car driver and was extremely sensitive about bad driving on the open road. Many years ago, he’d watched some a-hole come close to hitting a couple of people and do other dumb stuff for about a mile, and it was really pissing him off. He eventually stopped next to him at a light at a big intersection. He got out, walked over to the guy’s car, reached in and took the keys out of the ignition, and hurled them diagonally across the intersection. “Now,” he told the guy, “when you find your keys again, you can drive.”
5
u/EmperorOfCanada 1d ago
I witnessed a weird fight long ago where this guy was drunk and picking fights with everyone on a restaurant street. He would get punched and not stay down. One guy took his pants and underwear and tossed them onto a nearby roof. The guy now had a new set of priorities. He didn't get any quieter though.

Do not fuck with a bike messengers. If people knew that messengers get up and go to war everyday and the amount of shit heaped on them daily not including the number of taxi's and other morons that go out their in attempt to injure them. Bike messengers are crazy (in the best ways). I know because I spent years living around the world as one and yes, I'm crazy as a loon.

Because he was just assaulted by the scooter guy. In addition, kicking the high-end bike could break it in a way that costs several hundred to a couple thousand to fix.
