Bloody Pedestrians

[Yokai]

Good Grief, do Pedestrians suck or what??! Don't you hate it when there are people wandering around in the middle of the road right near traffic lights.

There you are, turning into - Oh I dunno - Grafton Road, and some silly arse with a backpack on and light blue polo shirt is just standing there in the middle of the road when you need to do a U-Turn in a driveway so that you can go back down Khyber Pass...

So - come on - own up whoever it was with the KB sticker that nearly ran me over, and I'll give you bling cos I was wandering around so stupidly and you were so un-roadragey as to be awesome!

(Yup - I was the daft pedestrian )

[judgeshock]

Well you're blardy unlucky.

Last pedestrian that did that to me ended up with first prize in the StandingInTheMiddleOfTheRoadSweepstakes - a week in the hospital, plus the bonus prize of two fractures and extra special ticket draw of a bill for all my bike repair expenses.

i got a cyclist while i was in high school. Dumb bastard did a uturn infront of me without looking.

had one dressed fully in black step out in front of me tonight, at a ped crossing. shes lucky i was slowing for the give way on the other side of it. also had some dumb chicks walk out in front of a car against the ped. crossing lights while in levin. nearly rear ended the car due to their stupidity...they also gave me weird looks when i stopped at mickey d's for a coffee.

some really need a wakeup slap...look both ways and then cross...dont just step out.

I wonder how you guys would cope in Blenheim. Hahaha, there are so many flipping courtesy crossings, you can guarantee a couple of arguments per day and at least one hospilisation per week

I have hit a few peds now, one I'm the domain sent her to hospital for the night, one one short street was going around the corner and she was fucking standing in the middle of the road, I did a stoppie as I grabbed a fist full of brakes her hand that was out was pushed back by my bike, and another one on the corner of shortland street and queen st, people just walk across there all the time, i don't stop for them they are on the road just keep going with horn on, that was the one time people didn't jump out of my way.

Almost every morning when I'm turning off Symonds St down St.Martins lane where I work I will have at least one ped just walk straight across St.Martins without the slightest glance left or right.

Seeing as the bmmr is a big old girl I just keep going and enjoy the startled look, quick scuttle thing.

Yeah, WTF happened to looking before crossing????

And don't get me started with the 'tards who wander around everywhere with studio-sized headphones clamped on their heads, completely oblivious to the outside world, hell talk about sensory deprivation!.

Yeah, WTF happened to looking before crossing????

dont worry natural selection has a hand in the remedy of this problem... just pray they havent bred.

Its BAD for people walking across the road without looking in Kaitaia, so if any of you are ever up that way.. Look out.. Kerikeri is REAL bad, you'll be backing your car out of a carpark and someone lady with a pram and kid in tow will walk behind your car. Sometimes its like they want to be hit..
