I had a lamborghini suv get mad that I was doing 30 in a 25 on my bike and did some aggressive vrooming behind me. How defeated as a person do you have to be to get a lamborghini, but SUV :psyduck:

the chunnel is folkestone, dover is the ferry.

the ferry is better than the eurostar because you can eat some expensive fish and chips, change your money at a bureau de change with worse rates than an airport then stand on the deck and admire the visible haze of pollution hovering over the channel.

the spirit of britain/france ferries can each carry 1,059 cars.

I drive pretty fast compared to most people but I always have to lmao when I still get tailgated driving like 20 over. I think some people just view the road as theirs and everyone else is in their way.

if you drive 20 mph over, you�re both suicidal and a higher potential murderer than normal. I assume the system will break down if you don�t and then you might die also. :shrug:

I just pull over immediately tbh because I am so far away from wanting to get rear-ended by one of those shitheads. Sometimes if I am lucky I can get the speeders to tailgate each other while I observe from a safe distance behind

I can drive like 40-50 over pretty safely on the roads I know, have to go a bit faster than that before I can actually lose traction on turns. 20 over is just more like commuting speed.

These are mostly empty mountain roads you should worry about someone else.

It was also at one of the most obnoxiously "share the road" sections of road around here, which is where I started to get radicalized many years ago. If I, someone both fast as gently caress and cool as hell on my bike have can't soothe the car brains blood lust, then there's absolutely no chance for anyone going a normal speed on a bike to not get flattened.

Although he was under the influence of alcohol and marijuana and was also street racing at the time of the crash, he believes the true culprit was the faulty mechanics of the car itself.

“In retrospect, I had gotten a new Scion tC and I was trying to sell the one that I’d crashed,” he said. “But I had an alternator problem with the other one and didn’t get it fixed. And I completely forgot that my front right tie rod was bad, which controls steering.”

Jersey City Councilwoman Amy DeGise will not resign after hit-and-run with cyclist

Jersey City Councilwoman Amy DeGise will not resign from office despite calls to do so after CCTV footage released by the city shows she struck a cyclist at an intersection without stopping afterwards.

Her spokesman, Phil Swibinski, told the New Jersey Globe that she �plans to complete her full term and continue in public service.�

�Councilwoman DeGise was elected overwhelmingly just a few months ago and she has no intention of walking away from the commitment she made to serve the people of Jersey City,� he said.

so brave.

On the way back from my destination, got to have a bunch of assholes weaving in and out of traffic so they could feel like Paul Walker and Vin Diesel.

Dear Editor:

The bicyclist ran a red light which is illegal in the state of New Jersey last time I checked. Closed circuit video footage proves it, and it is obvious to those with their eyes wide open. But could he have made a human error and truly believed the light was green?
In the crash report, the bicyclist told cops he had a green light and the right of way. He also told the media the same. Facts are always important, and the fact here is that he either lied twice adding insult to injury or his action or decision was not intentional. Any court in the country can examine the video footage and see clearly as day that the proof is the truth.

What irritates me is it is peculiar how certain politicians fiercely demanded the video footage right away! As it turns out, it is this evidence that proves Councilwoman Amy DeGise, the motorist, was not the guilty party. Ms. DeGise undoubtedly made a report to the lawful authority. They were so quick to judge her and came to adverse conclusions before they had all the facts. My suspicion is that certain politicians were just looking to vilify the Councilwoman At Large.

Dear Editor:

When I watched the video of the accident involving Councilwoman Amy Degise and a bicyclist, I got flashbacks of the time a speeding bike came inches from slamming my automobile at a high speed, while pulling out of a Hudson County supermarket. A few more inches and he would have been dead; speedo shorts, fid bit, helmet and all. Yep, he almost hit my automobile just like the bicyclist was the one that hit Amy Degise.

The CCTV Video Cameras show proof that the cyclist ran the red light which is against the law, at the intersection of MLK Drive & Forrest Street, striking the vehicle with force.

My opinion is that so many of the bike riders are guilty of this infraction, it�s impossible to count them. We just Thank God that nobody was killed this time. Evidence proves that the bike hit the car at a high speed after running that very red light. My view is that it was not a hit & run crash because she reported it to police. It fact, it was her who was hit. I�m sure she panicked confusingly as any motorist would. Being a council woman doesn�t make her any less human.

Any calls for her to resign because of this incident are ill mannered political grand standing. Remember, running a red light is illegal. Fortunately for Amy, she was not the one who ran the red light. Indeed, the cyclist is the one who should be forgiven and will have his day in court. He is as human as her.

Any attempt to recall her with a few hundred signatures won�t be helpful either. The full video is proof of the most critical evidence. He ran the red light, not her.
