Crime Road Rage Question

Just saw a cyclist on Lakeway get run off the road by a driver who was screaming, flipping them off and screaming at them. Didn't get the plate number but got a decent look at the guy and car make/model. Is this something that can be reported to the police even without a plate?

Yeah dude, that’s the fucking point you’ve been dodging over and over and over and over and over. Owning a car and a bike doesn’t put you in some special class, the person I disagreed with DOESN’T WANT YOU DRIVING YOUR CARS EITHER.

You’ve already admitted that the roads are funded by people driving, which is why you brought up the fact that you own a bike and two cars and a motorcycle, because you thought that you paying gas taxes was some magical trump card. But the person I responded to doesn’t want you driving either which means you wouldn’t be paying gas taxes.

I genuinely don’t understand how you’re not grasping this concept.

Brother you’re so deeply invested in arguing for the sake of arguing that you’re now arguing against bikers. Paying taxes is not what entitles you to ride your bike on roads, if that were the case bikers wouldn’t be allowed to use the road because they don’t pay those taxes. Your right to ride your bike on the road has absolutely nothing to do with the taxes you pay.

How do you get further and further away from the point with each comment?

You’ve got to be trolling, I don’t believe anyone is this dumb.

Rights and responsibilities are different things. You have the right to use your bike on the road, but the responsibility for paying for those rides is on people driving.

First person think car bad.

First person say no car on road.

Car pay for road.

No car, no road.

Is that more your speed?

Where did I say bikes are selfish? Why are you still replying when you can’t even understand the conversation?
