Why Drivers Hate To See Cyclists

To all cycling enthusiasts and pro-cycling people, this 'PBK' in the video is one reason why drivers hate you.

Please watch this video (uploaded by SG Road Vigilante) and tell me whether you feel the rage I feel as a driver.

What's Happening

In this 0.29 second video, we see a cyclist doing a series of wrong things (in just 3 seconds)

1.       He's cycling on a footpath when he should be on the road

2.       He does not check his blind spot

3.       He makes a 'lane change' to the road with total disregard to traffic

This incident happens along Mandai Road, near the Mandai Crematorium (which is where he would have gone if he had been run down).

What's worse, from the cam car's footage, it looks like it might have hit the KIA Niro in front that had to do an emergency brake (the recording cuts off before any impact, so I can only speculate).

I totally cannot understand the mind of these cyclists who can just ride in their own world and disregard other road users. 

Why would one just jump out to the road without even checking if there is any traffic behind? Well I guess, these cyclists (not just this one but those who hogged a long stretch of traffic behind) probably didn't bother much about their own life or think their life are cheap. Globally, cyclists are becoming a nuisance.

I seriously doubt most of them know what's Highway Code in the first place (if they are not a driver).

Same goes for PMDs.

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 2

    Note: Click here to read Pt. 1, where the journey began in Hong Kong. NEXT UP: CHONGQING Day 3, cont.: Dad had decided on the scenic route to Chongqing - train. We did not realise that the immigration process at the Hong Kong Kowloon West station involved both the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, so we found ourselves in a rush to board the train (we boarded minutes before the scheduled departure). Through the eight-hour journey, the passing sights made me realise the diversity

    Zebras

    On a recent podcast episode, this hilarious nugget of information was brought up: "Zebras have the loudest farts".  What.  I have spent some time Googling this, and I cannot yet definitely verify the accuracy of this statement. But there is some scientific basis to it - zebras are hindgut fermenters, and there's a whole bunch of biology behind it but the important takeaway is that yes, zebras fart plenty. This also explains their 'bum-heavy' shape, similar to cows, horses, el
