"pedestrians are more dangerous than cars, they think the road belongs to them and they don't have to watch out"

I was almost hit by one going the wrong way on Broadway in NYC. I didn't look because it's a one way street in SOHO! -- nm - lileve Mar 20, 12:13 2
- it's like for them, One Way signs are just suggestions... -- nm - znufrii Mar 20, 12:14 1
  - As are traffic lights for that matter -- nm - znufrii Mar 20, 12:21
bike riders who want their fare share of the road, but ignore all signage drive me insane. -- nm - Andie Mar 20, 12:10 5
- I'm afraid that one day I'll have one of the under my car - marcel Mar 20, 12:15 1
  - nice IM -- nm - zork Mar 20, 12:16
- what piss me off are the ones that go counter to the traffic direction and then get mad at you for stepping out in front of them when you dont' see - znufrii Mar 20, 12:12
- Single File! I often yell this out the window -- nm - CQ Mar 20, 12:12
- That and riders who will use pedestrian push-button crosswalks when it's convenient. Ugh. -- nm - Shaun Mar 20, 12:11
I swear one of these days a bike messenger will be the end of me. - znufrii Mar 20, 12:10 1
- I think the same thing about hot chicks I see on the street - con_carne Mar 20, 12:17
Galileo? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 20, 12:09 1
