EA53GWG SMIDSY Doddery old dear behind the wheel

[SilverTrowel631]

Ive watched a few of your vids.... This one actually deserves a you tube slot.

Stupid woman making a stupid turn, thats how you kill people.

[mostgrossdanger04]

25 yrs on a moterbike..by christ I've seen it all..I thought the rules were very clear...you do not enter the flow of traffic when, if by doing so you cause another road user to change direction OR alter speed!! There is no argument here ..learn some fukin respect and share the road..

[MAPFWH]

I bet you wish you had used the car on that day. At least you would have never seen this.... you would have been past it, and in the office by then, staying warm,dry, safe, and invulnerable. Like 99% of the rest of the population :P

[chalkus]

All you had to do was let her complete her maneuver by slowing down a bit but the chip on your shoulder is so large you just about manage to sit your arrogance on it.

[0snakebite]

@chalkus what would she have done if it was a HGV not a bike, and it didn't have enough time to slow down? these people should not have licences

[chalkus]

@0snakebite But it wasn't an HGV was it?! It was you with your massive ego!

[0snakebite]

@chalkus my "massive ego" is not going to kill someone. a HGV that doesnt have time to stop may well do.

[chalkus]

@0snakebite Well, as I said... there was no HGV so stop bullying vulnerable people

[0snakebite]

@chalkus Well there was no ego either so stop making things up

[chalkus]

@0snakebite "A doddery old dear " - I rest my case

[0snakebite]

@chalkus That doesn't justify anything. I just said these people should not have licences, true given the example of what they are capable of. Why should we kid ourselves that these are the actions of a responsible and FULLY aware road user? So what you're saying is that shit like this should just be shrugged off because the woman is old? Bullying? Vulnerable people? I don't know what planet you live on, but this woman would be less vulnerable if on the bus rather than behind the wheel

[chalkus]

@0snakebite You shouldn't be on the road yourself if you believe that... if somebody is performing such a maneuver before you get there, you must give way.... this cyclist had more than ample time to slow. I don't know what planet you are on my friend but us cyclists don't own the road.

[0snakebite]

@chalkus This isn't quite "before you get there", it's more "as you are approaching" and near enough right in front of you. This is not ample time to slow, and I know cyclists do not own the road but to imply that this woman hasn't done anything wrong is an embarrassment to decent considerate road users.

[chalkus]

@0snakebite "as you are approaching" = "before you get there"

[0snakebite]

@chalkus It doesn't work both ways though, still not ample time to slow down.

[stevenfoot01]

Happens all the time, best solution it to kick there mirror off with your boot. They notice you then

[Cyclingbikingtrucker]

@Pentdad, see comment above original, posted less than a few seconds after first ;)

[Cyclingbikingtrucker]

60*

[Cyclingbikingtrucker]

Should introduce a compulsory re-test every 2 years after 6

[Pentdad]

@Cyclingbikingtrucker after 6 years? Dude we dont need more taxation just to keep people in jobs! Maybe after 60 years old but not 6 years!

[rhys0065]

the battery's on her hearing aid must have fucking wasted

[Strider9655]

They're a hazard to ALL road user's and should go through much more stringent testing to be allowed to keep their licences!

[roundtr1p]

This old granny probably pays 50 quid insurance while I have to pay 2000 and drive 10x safer.

[downfader2]

Isnt that the old bag from the advert with her stereo turned way up!? Hehehe!

[Bristolcyclista]

Nice comment, think I'll use it myself.

[WheelyGoodFun]

Doesn't look like she heard you either! :(

[TheVexatiousLitigant]

How can old people constantly get away with this shit, I see far too many old biddies that are obviously losing their minds but they are still in charge of a ton plus of vehicle
