White Van Man Waves As He Drives At Cyclists

This one couldn't quite bring himself to like, actually stop for traffic already on the RAB, but he could manage a wave to the cyclist ahead of me. Don't think he counted on there being more than one cyclist though, so I gave him a cheery 'Hello' and wave as he pulled out into my path. That seemed to get his attention!

you guys really make a meal of people making very minor mistakes on the road. all this self righteous hand waving at the van is embarrassing.

@scottishlad1987

The thing is, a minor mistake may have a significant consequence. When you are not sitting inside a metal safety cage, this is something you become very aware of.

so how com i pay road tax to the government, and its clearly labeled as fucking road tax you dick haahah, and ox131jf your adopted and also a jew, go die

@xXxBigStuxXx

Not sure where you are looking for your labels but if you look on the Direct Gov UK website, they refer to it as "Vehicle Tax".

[xXxBigStuxXx]

who gives a fuck about cyclists, you dont pay any road tax like all of us other road users, and then you do something fucked up like that, YOU drove into the white van man not the other way round

Road Tax does not exist, Winston Churchill abolished it in 1937. Vehicle owners pay VED based on their vehicle's emissions: Band A cars and cyclists are exempt. I own a Band K car and so pay more VED than most car owners, certainly more than motorbike owners. But taxation has nothing to do with road use. The van driver either didn't see or didn't care there were two cyclists already on the RAB to whom he should have given way.

"Our roads"? Public roads? Roads that as a member of the public I'm entitled to ride on? In safety? Hmm, try reading the Highway Code and applying it to the way you choose to use the roads.

@frabe81118 oh can i highlight the fact that as soon as your cycling partner displayed a hand signal to exit the roundabout the white van stopped allowing both of you safe passage off the roundabout, and the reaction of the white van driver is spot on.. hand signal>stop>1 second later>"Hello"

[frabe81118]

As a motorcyclist I hate white van drivers, almost been killed a few times by them but the one thing i hate more than anything is arrogant cyclists who don't know their place. you were on the inside of the roundabout, he was on the outside, from what i can see you felt angered that he entered the roundabout whilst you were on it and decided to shout "Hello" at him... you sir, are a cock.

tl;dr

op is a faggot

@kmcyc ffs get a life you cunt.

[TheShockingGrind]

@scottishlad1987 And that "Minor Mistake" could end a Cyclists life.

[krazykizza]

you was in the wrong lane!

[CyclingMikey]

@xXxBigStuxXx No, it's called VED, and it's an emissions based tax. Are you suggesting that people who don't pay VED aren't allowed to use the public highway?

[CyclingMikey]

@xXxBigStuxXx Is that like the half of motorcycle riders that were found to be exceeding the speed limit in the bus lane trials? Exceeding the speed limit not just by a little bit, but by a huge amount.

@xXxBigStuxXx You have anger issues ! Are you a dangerous person on the road with your outrageous attitude replies ? I have some advice for you ! Fill your bath up with warm water place your head under the water and breath deeply, after your lungs have filled with water you will pass out within 10 seconds. After this you will drown and the world will be a better place without you......Go on Sir put the plug in.
