Rush Hour in Brooklyn
This was a first for us: En route to the office this morning we encountered actual congestion in the bike lane along Navy Street, though the strikingly homogeneous group of riders remained quite civil as they pulled up to the intersection and waited, law-abidingly, for the light to turn green.

This was a first for us: En route to the office this morning we encountered actual congestion in the bike lane along Navy Street, though the strikingly homogeneous group of riders remained quite civil as they pulled up to the intersection and waited, law-abidingly, for the light to turn green. As we approached Sands Street, everyone else made a left towards the Manhattan Bridge as we continued on towards Dumbo.
I thought Everybody Loves Raymond.
And a parade.
“I’ve run into Tourists stopped in the middle of the sidewalk looking at maps”
And, ET, this is why we’ve told you repeatedly NOT to drive your land yacht on the sidewalk.
I’m all for doing what you want in life, but bragging that you are a single person in NYC who owns 4 cars is about as ludicrous as your thoughts on me bringing up an oil spill which has forever ruined a part of our country and car driving in the same sentence.

Mine too, dona-TEL-la! I think any humor got lost in the shuffle.
I walk (fast), bike, and drive so I have issues with everyone and no one.

“Absolutely! And everyone needs to follow the rules.”
I realize you like to stir the pot on this topic, and probably not as thick headed as you seem. I highly suggest you go for a bike ride one of these days. Many things you perceive to be ‘breaking the rules’ or ‘dangerous’ are not done because of douchebaggery by cyclists- but more out of self preservation and *gasp* courtesy to people in cars.
as someone so accurately stated above – things like jumping the light (safely) actually get people OUT of your way to make turns.
“I have 4 cars.”
Did you ever know that you’re my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
If we eliminate all the posters to whom Ditto implicitly refers in his recap above, I think the only one left standing is *Rob*.
