Instant Karma

There are lots of footpaths in Colchester that are divided into pedestrian and cycle lanes. These are clearly marked but nobody seems able to read any more!

It's good to see I'm not the only one who feels increasingly irritated by ill mannered, aggressive cyclists. Well done that man.

I recognise that not all car drivers are careful around cyclists (or horses or pedestrians either) but so many cyclists seem to feel that the rules of the road, or even simple good manners, don't apply to them.

Walking dogs, or children around our local reservoirs is becoming less pleasurable due to the number of cyclists racing along the paths. They're silent but deadly, I've never heard a shout or a bell to warn they're coming and they don't seem able to slow down for dogs or children. To make matters worse, the paths they're using are clearly marked No Cyclists. I don't mind sharing the paths with them on quiet mid week days, providing they show a bit of sense around dogs/children/elderly/less mobile folks but there does seem to be a sense of entitlement. Rant of the morning over.

Good Man! A couple of years ago I nearly got mowed down on a controlled crossing. Some B man just rode through the red lights as I was starting to cross. He just carried on, but the car that was waiting at the lights blasted his horn after him.

I was walking on a path, in a park, in Brussels when I was almost run down by a cyclist. He clearly thought it was my fault for daring to venture on to a footpath and swore at me.

Wonderful story! Flippin idiot got his comeuppance

A heartwarming story! Instant karma indeed.

He will probably be on CCTV and the police will knock on 'his' door accusing him of assault.

Personally I would say 'good on yer fella'

Well done, Dad but I wouldn't have called the police or he might have been done for assaulting the moron.

Prat !
Well done that dad

they ought to have called the police too so he could get charged with leaving the scene of an accident...

Oh, I love a bit of Karma Just a shame it's not always so instant that you can actually witness it!

Hooray!

Double good!!

Good!
