@SharonH70814431@OkunnigBilist@WolfgangGrint23@FLC1889@jeggburt@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT Please don’t leave forever Sharon. You’re my ally here and I’m taking a lot of pleasure from seeing these pro-cycle nuts try to explain why absolutely ANYTHING that happens near a car is the drivers fault. I need you on my team.
@OkunnigBilist@SharonH70814431@WolfgangGrint23@FLC1889@jeggburt@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT I agree the driver of the vehicle should have slowed down, so is at fault for causing the panic. But to answer your question, two reasons.
1. The cyclist aren’t blameless. Panic, stopping and failing to unclip shoes. That’s on them.
2. It annoys the shit out of idiots like you
@PaulCra33107260@SharonH70814431@OkunnigBilist@FLC1889@jeggburt@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT I wouldn’t let my kids out on their bikes without first explaining to them how to unclip their shoes from their pedals in case the other children decide to slam their brakes on, scream and panic if a vehicle overtook them in a neighbouring postcode.
@OkunnigBilist@WolfgangGrint23@FLC1889@jeggburt@SharonH70814431@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT Brilliant, so you’ve tried to define the word AT, someone has explained it to you and shown you aren’t 100% accurate, and your response is “it has many meanings” then you’ve referred that person to a book as the internet doesn’t cut it for you. Fuck me have a day off you sap 😂
@OkunnigBilist@FLC1889@jeggburt@SharonH70814431@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT No, this is based on intent. In your example, the shots were intended to hit the target, they missed, the driver did not intend to hit the cyclist, but to pass them. Executed perfectly. Shame the footage of the manoeuvre is spoilt by a women screaming and making a great pen save.
@colmanc@RobMcLondon@stendec6@MarkDenty50@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT “Life in danger” - I think that if you watch that video and your assessment is that those cyclists were nearly killed, my risk assessment isn’t the one we need to question. I thought she fell off her bike like a moron, I didn’t realise she jumped to save her life. Fair play 👏🏻
@colmanc@RobMcLondon@stendec6@MarkDenty50@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT Can you take your helmet off and calm down please? If you swear at me again it might alarm me and cause me to fall over and injure myself. Hand your Twitter account in if you’re not prepared to accept that responsibility
@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT This is properly hilarious. I’d assumed it was an April Fools post and checked the date. Then spent the last 2 hours appalled at the bellendery in the comments section of properly enthusiastic cyclists 😂 have a day off your wheels, ffs
@OkunnigBilist@FLC1889@jeggburt@SharonH70814431@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT But he didn’t drive AT them did he? Otherwise there would be 3 injured cyclists lying in a ditch and the footage would have been of a collision. Instead the footage is of a vehicle driving PAST them and some scared women leaping into the trenches for cover.
@stendec6@SeanWhite15@NorthantsPolice @northants_SRT If she had fallen to the right, then she would have looked equally as stupid as she did falling to the left, except she’d have had a bruised leg I expect.
