[Closed] Critical Mass Carnage in Brazil

Holy crap 🙁

That's horrible. I'm properly shocked at that.

Reading the link, I wonder if they've caught him yet? Coward.

thats shocking, they know how he is, and he's in hiding, what a disgusting thing to do.

It appears that some parts of the media are calling it an accident. I would call it many things, but it is most certainly not that.

😯

Jesus H Christ. He should be left in a room with those guys for half hour. The bastard.

Let us hope a group of cyclists find the driver, and initiate him with a good quality bike lock.

Absolutely no excuse for that

very scary 😥

that is beyond belief..

I watched it with the sound down.. I can't bring myself to watch it again to hear the audio..

I can't even bring myself to make an inappropriate joke..

My god. Please somebody tell me that's a fake. I literally can't believe that someone would do that. 😐

" Well hello Mr Golf driver ,Meet my friend Mr Ton and his Bombers.- feel free to help yourself to some fist pie"

What a horrible thing to do . Prison will be too good for him.
Kinda shocked actually. Drink or Drugs involved I reckon.

Driver should be strung up.

At first I thought it was fake, but the whole after bit makes it look like its real. Thats pretty mental.

That is horrific!! Why would someone do such a thing!!

WTF?

My goodness I hope that's a pr stunt of some kind using cgi to make a statement about road safety as that's horrific

That's horrific, and terrifying. Hope they catch the driver and do him for attempted murder. But, not to justify or make light of what he did, but I've always felt that Critical mass was quite antagonistic and not really in cyclists best interests. Something like this was probably on the cards.

'kin 'ell ! can't believe what I've just seen.

Pure evil.

According to this, no one was killed.

A local news site says 'police have identified the driver and are waiting for him to turn himself in voluntarily (apparently as of yesterday he is not at his home address).'

Speedy recoveries to all those injured.

Properly shocking. That's got to be a charge of attempted murder hasn't it?
I do hope all the victims make a full recovery and feel able to ride again. That could put you off for life.
We need to get this going viral so people can understand what the 'anti-cycling' attitude can lead to at its most extreme

I read the report & decided I didnt want to watch the film - it sounded horrific. I hope those injured fully recover & the culprit is force fed his own gonads.

I could only really watch it after I read that no-one had been killed.

About 20 counts of I would have thought. Alas[url= http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2010/11/08/wealthy-fund-manager-avoids-felony-charges-running-cyclist/ ] nothing is guaranteed these days.[/url]

Scary stuff.

That's horrendous. 😯

Mind, on the bike or not, you're always (very slightly) vulnerable to some insane **** deciding to have a crack at killing you becaue he's annoyed, high or whatever.

Appalling.

shocking
what do you do with people that ll do things like that?
not sure if it applies in Brazil
Ive been told on pretty good authority in the UK a car cant be classed as a murder weapon... manslaughter is as far as it goes
which is crazy in my opinion

Reet.

It happened Friday and not Saturday. The guy's lawyer has contacted police and is going to present him on Monday.

I'm not going to watch that.

Please forward that video to Jerremy Clarkson, as this is the sort of thing he suggests.

'kin el! Hope he gets chain-whipped while being anally raped by a Mountain Morph.

Genuinely appalled at that. 😕

Properly nasty little tosser doing that. It's twenty counts of attempted murder, pure and simple. He should be locked up for the rest of his life. It'll never happen though.

that is one of the saddest things I have ever seen.

holy shizzle.
hope the hang the ****er (it's be a careless driving charge over here though!!)

that is horrible. HORRIBLE!

Unfortunately there is every likelihood that he will get away with it scot free judging by the comments in the reports, no life sentence in Brazil for any crime etc, also a story of a drunk driver killing a whole family and he only served one day in prison, horrific incident.

from road.cc

[i]One cyclist who was on the ride Camilo Colling, told the Brazilian website Terra Brasil that he spoke to the driver just before the incident, asking him to be patient and stop behaving aggressively towards the riders in his path and warning him that there were children and older people taking part in the ride ahead. The driver allegedly replied "Yes but I'm in a hurry" before ploughing his car in to the group of cyclists in front of him.[/i]

Awful.

But might is right in Brazil. Any sociopath can get a car, do something horrendous, and by the sounds of it, get away scot free.

I wouldn't do a Critical Mass thing, and certainly not in Brazil, the likelihood of an angry driver shooting you or doing something like this is too high. Don't want to say that the Critical Mass things are right or wrong, or that people shouldn't do them, but IMHO they are not conducive to whatever end they are supposed to be for.

that is terrible.
bastards like that deserve to die at the wheel of their vehicle in a horrific crass.
imho that is.

IMHO they are not conducive to whatever end they are supposed to be for.

WTF?????

How can you say that when, buy your own admission, you don't know what the point is?

Sh1t the bed - that is absolutely sickening - very lucky that nobody was killed. Hope they send him down for a long, long time.

it wouldn't surprise me if something similar happened over here (it already has in USA/Australia)
a car is a very effective weapon for killing people especially when you take into account you can often get away with just points, a 1 year ban and a small fine.
why use a gun when the justice system and the British obsession with the motor car make it so easy.
