Bottom lime? Use your common sense..
Careful, you could break the internet with comments like that!

You're new here, right? 😉
But that is basically the point I was trying to make earlier.
When dealing with conversational anti-cyclist types at work/parties/pub IME it annoys them more if you simply don't engage, I think they like hearing the standard line responses to their clarksonite clone views.
A straightforward "yeah if you think so..." or "well you're perfectly entitled to your opinion..." with no attempt to address their "arguments" against cyclists tends to shut them up far more effectively than any attempt at reasoned debate with a moron...
In the long term you win anyway, the modern motorist is a doomed species. Cycling has a brighter future IMO...

Never shout at a car. You instantly look in the wrong.TBH, reading your posts makes me wonder if you are a troll or just unhinged. Or both.
It's difficult to tell.
The only certainty is that you've never ridden a bike.
I guess plenty on here don't realise what utter arseholes they are and assume it's everyone else. It's not. It's you.
Which is sort of the point I was making ^^.
Everyone on the road assumes that they are perfect and everyone else is the arsehole. You only have to look at those surveys of drivers where "80% of drivers think they are 'above average'" or "60% of drivers say they never use their mobile/speed/jump red lights"
Everyone assumes they're better than average - they'll look up and swear at another driver using the phone but then justify their own sneaky check of a text message with "oh it was just a quick glance while I was at the lights".
