I have them step out when I drive the van too, it's not just bikes they like to dodge.
I've found women with young toddlers standing in the middle of two lanes of traffic which is pushing 60mph, at night in the pissing rain, expecting to get across.
I usually wind down the window and ask "what the fuck do you think you're doing? you will cause an ACCIDENT" do they apologise? do they even acknowledge?
do they fuck.
just plain pig-ignorant, lazy, selfish cunts. these are the same type of people that drop litter.
some humans are just too LAZY to use a crossing two feet away, or look where they're going.
one of my favourite games is when slowing down for lights/junctions and you get some twats wandering through the slowing traffic, because they can only be bothered to do a route 1 at an angle, they aim for the gap behind the van before it's there, like they're anticipating the speed. But the traffic is slowing, not going at a constant speed, so sometimes I stop slightly earlier, or slow down even more..
these twats will actually walk into the back of the van rather than adjust their speed/direction by a tiny amount, it's hilarious but saddening.
My generation was brought up to respect the road, and be careful when crossing it.
Some of the stunts these muppets pull are beyond belief.
Where is Tufty? where is the Green Cross Code Man?
where is Great Britain?
where are my teeth..they were in the glass last night....
