Crazy driver harasses cyclists in Boulder

[Rucker61]

I'm certainly not siding with the bicyclists here, I find most of them to be incredibly arrogant about "their rights" and such BS, and they tend to piss me off. I'm just saying that the SUV in the video certainly appeared to have plenty of room to just pass right by 'em, even without going over the double yellow line. Just makes more sense to me to pass 'em and get away from 'em rather than hang right behind 'em honkin' my horn like a fool.

Reminds me of these two fucktards that were behind me one day when I-25 still had an HOV lane. I was going well over the speed limit in the HOV lane, and these two wads were behind me honking and waving at me to move over. So I moved over, but they didn't speed up, they stayed in the HOV lane at the same speed, glaring at me because I dared to be a solo driver in THEIR HOV lane. Apparently they felt the need to be HOV lane police or whatever, but weren't smart enough to realize that the HOV rules were only for certain times of the day, and it was 2.5 hours outside that window.

Okay, new invention time. Directional bluetooth connectivity so that you can actually talk into another nearby car's sound system to "explain" things to them live.

Actually pretty easy to do with a UHF transmitter. Only trouble would be getting the FCC to sign off on it.

Don't know if it has been posted yet but they ticketed the SUV driver.
The Colorado State Patrol has issued a citation to a driver who allegedly followed and harassed bicyclists in Boulder County.

75-year-old James Ernst of Erie, Colo. is charged with two counts of harassment, one count of impeding the flow of traffic, and one count of improper use of a horn or warning device.

Dirk Friel, a bicyclist, posted a video on a website on Sunday showing the driver slowly trailing the cyclists as the driver repeatedly honked the horn at them throughout the two-minute clip.

Friel tells the Longmont Times-Call he was worried the driver would cause an accident. He says his biking companion had to use his hand to push off as the vehicle finally passed them.

Now who ya gonna side with?

Now HE received a ticket for impeding traffic when the entire video was a double yellow line? That doesn't sound like mob justice at all. Enough people bitch loud enough and they're get anything these days. Someone stop this ride because I want off. I don't even want to play anymore.

All he had to do was go around them like he would anything else. If there was a dead elk on the side of the lane, and you can't go around it without crossing the double yellow lines, are you supposed to run it over or stop and honk at it?

EDIT: I don't think he should have gotten a ticket, for the record.

that is an absolutely terrible example....






I know I would stop and if that thing was fresh that thing would be in my freezer. You can't do that with a biker

I have the misfortune of driving into Denver daily. Not all but many cyclists do not obey the rules of the road. I have experienced every kind of stupid there is to offer from these clowns; blowing through intersections, racing between stopped cars, crossing multiple lanes through the sidewalk and back onto the road, you name it. One day I was crossing a road with construction, cars lined up but not blocking my cross street so I proceed across. Well, knowing these idiots, I watch for it...sure enough, some dumbass is racing through cars and meets me in the intersection...fortunately for him, I stopped. I saw four cyclists get hit this summer. So many of them just don't follow the rules of the road; it is hard to anticipate what they are going to do. Of course, there are some who do follow the rules and wonder why motorists are annoyed; well, talk to the morons creating problems. If the light turns red...STOP! I also get frustrated with them on our mountain highways especially with a trailer; I have no idea what they are doing on a highly traveled highway in the first place. Even though I hold a great deal of annoyance, I don't go off or endanger them like this guy. However, I bet this guy is annoyed for a reason.

I drive in Denver a lot and I hate 90% of the cycle-lists there. Most seem to be homeless or poor people but they still don't follow the rules of the road. Here is a video I took last winter of one running 2 stop signs. I was following him for a few blocks and he ran like 3 or 4 before I got the camera out.
