Do you give way to pedestrians crossing the road that you're turning into?

Ah Ah Ah

I meant I didn't have to shout.

Ah Ah Ah

Ha Ha Ha

I give high-fives to people hailing cabs or buses.

I can't rep you but tee hee me too.

I give high-fives to people hailing cabs or buses.

I try to do that too. It either make people laugh or run away.

It works best if you use the Borat voice.
"Haaaai Faiiiiiiive!!"

This sounds fun, excuse me for stealing your idea, but i shall soon be known as the north London High Fiver.

Optimistic.

Better than pessimistic.

Not if you're a pessimist.

Good thing im an optimist.

Then you can be optimistic that the North London High Fivers might one day let you join the clan. Your first task is to high five a nun.

Easy, i currently am in a building with a healthy stock of nuns every few days.
So does this clan have matching jackets or should i just make my own?

vehicles, and that includes bicycles, turning into a road must give way to pedestrians crossing it.
So yes, I do. even if it wasn't the law, it's just polite.

Of course, the definition of giving way might not necessarily mean waiting for them to get to the other side - just passing behind them is sufficient on a bike, though on a motorcycle I usually give them more time and space so I don't frighten the life out of them as I rev the motor.

does this law count if pedestrians are crossing the road at a pelican crossing with a red man?

You must be riding for the high five to count.

Making your own jacket from the spittle of a young elk (having high-fived) is part of task eleven. More on that later. I want photographic evidence of the nun action.

I give high-fives to people hailing cabs or buses.

i do that too. brightens up my sad miserable existence and makes me feel like i have a friend.

Well if a ped crosses at a red man and a driver fails to stop will they be blamed, or will the driver?

Definitely not - and those peds are often the most wrongly self-righteous, and aggressive towards cyclists. In those instances, I shout a warning that I'm going to knock them the fuck down*.

*waits for Daily Mail to quote me out of context or without due regard for sarcasm.

**Do you give way to pedestrians crossing the road that you're turning into?

**

• If they're already crossing - NO, I just plow into them.
  
• If they're standing on the pavement and look like they're going to cross - NO. Then I mount the pavement and plow into them.
  
• If they're sitting in a cafe having a cup of coffee while relaxing and reading the Metro, but look like they may cross the road in 10 minutes or so - NO. I mount the pavement and dive head first through the window and plow into them.
  

• And if they look like they want some more, I call in the boys

• 

Even if peds are in the wrong it makes sense to avoid the stupid fucks.

Take one down late at night every now and then though just to keep the balance and your inner turmoil at a minimum.

Plough...

sometimes pedestrians give way to me, I say thanks.
more often I give way to peds, they say fuck all.
occasionally someone steps out in front of me without looking, I avoid them, they say fuck all but I remind them to look before stepping out into the road.
some mornings I wish the world would end.

It's one of those mornings for me.

Nothing to do with the subject of this thread though.

Plough...

Shit, I've been Platini'd.
Hangs head in shame :(

There's no shame...

Plough...

Not if you're American, the correct spelling over there is indeed "plow" if Archi is not American however, more than his head should be hung....imho.
