    That’s not reasonable to assume. Let me prove it?

    Are you Food Safety Certified from a credited organization? No?

    Then obviously your cooking must be poisonous.

    I however am food safety certified. I cannot cook at all. Suck at cooking. I do know proper temps, and how to store food. I still cannot cook.

    Having a license only PROVES you know the rules. Having one doesn’t mean your GOOD at thing or even that you will FOLLOW the rules. It just proves you KNOW the rules.

    Likewise not having a license doesn’t mean you DONT know the rules or WONT follow the rules. It only means you haven’t proven to a licensing body that you do.

    I don’t have a medical license, but I know you shouldn’t take opioids every day of your life or you’ll get addicted to them. Clearly many doctors did not know that or did not care.

    Edit: hell one more fun one.

    When I was in school we had a state issued standardized test called the TAAS test. I got a perfect score every single year. Got every single question in the entire test, every category, correct. 100 percent.

    However I was failing most of my classes. Did I know the material or did I not? One certificate said I exceptional and perfect, the other certificate says I was far below my peers.

    Which one was right?



  • You’re trolling.

    Basically you’re saying “sometimes cyclist don’t follow traffic rules”

    As you’re justification why OP must’ve been in the road instead of the bike lanes they specifically mentioned. It’s nonsense.

    You have no argument, you just don’t like people riding bikes because you once saw a guy not following rules on a bike. Give me a break. Why are you here if you only want to defend cars even when the evidence clearly shows the car was at fault? Why are you here if you want to exclusively blame cyclist for every bad thing that a driver does?

    You’re trolling. Go home.

    Op said they were on a bike. Op said there were two designated bike lanes. Ok said car nearly hit them.

    One of two things must be true.

    Car entered the bike lane. A thing that happens often.

    Op was riding in the traffic lane instead of the two designated bike lanes, then posted about it, and specifically mentioned the two bike lanes they were not using for no reason other than to make themself look bad. A thing that doesn’t happen often.

    You see how short one explanation is compared to the other? Yeah the short explanation is probably what happened. It’s the most likely explanation.

    I love that part of the internet.

    Kinda like “guy code”

    “Was said he was with you last night”

    "Yep, all night. Cleaned the spark plugs in my car and drained the blinker fluid. Couldn’t have done it without him "

    But instead it’s “parent code”

    “Yeah fortnight is closed. They close it so everyone can get a good night’s sleep and be ready for the morning!”

    I was going to tell a personal story about telling my son McDonald’s was closed when I was broke or in a hurry but it reminded me of another cute store.

    My son broke his arm in a McDonald’s once. Hyper extended his elbow. Got a couple pins.

    Anyway a year or so later they completely remodeled that McDonald’s.

    We drove by the demolished building during the remodel and my son shouted “that’s what you get for breaking my arm! Who’s broken now!”

    Adorable vengeance served adorably cold.

    Op had an option to not be in danger then. They were in the car lane to feel the drama.

    That’s you making a wild leap to blame the bike.

    I’m using what’s called occums razor. Op mentioned the bike lanes. Op didn’t say anything about being in the main road.

    It’s more reasonable to assume they were using the bike lanes they mentioned. It’s unreasonable to assume they were in the road and only mentioned the bike lanes to us in order to make themselves look bad. That doesn’t make sense.

    Nor did the cyclist. Two wrongs don’t make you right.

    Again there is no reason to assume the cyclist isn’t in the bike lane or is breaking any kind of law. You just decided entirely on your own that they must be in the road.

    I saw a car driving on the bike path just yesterday. Not even a bike lane, I completely separate path on the side of the road separated by a big ditch. They drove on the bike path to avoid traffic lights.

    You’re picking and choosing assumptions that suit your preference.

    That’s pretty rich considering you’re assuming OP (on a bike) specifically mentioned two designated bike lanes, decided to ride in the road instead, then told all of us so we would know he’s a jerk.

    If they were riding in the road they wouldn’t have mentioned the bike lanes at all so they looked like the “good guy”

    “So I was stomping on some kittens right, then this guy cut in line at Walmart right in front of me! What a jerk”

    Why would someone include the part of the story that made them the bad guy?

    You are the one assuming whatever fits you’re narrative the best. You must drive a BMW and are here to troll bike riders.
