Woman eats cereal while driving her Land Rover

Cereal? Pah, the woman wants to try and eat a whole chicken breast, rice and broccoli with nothing but a fork without it going everywhere That's dangerous!



:o:(

OK, so you always sit there staring at the car in front of you whilst stationary, fully concentrating on your surroundings, hands at 10-2 because doing otherwise would 100% kill everyone.

Yep, that's totally not BS at all... :p

I think it's pretty safe to assume that a person who takes to driving with a bowl of cereal ready to eat at a stop light or a point when stationary really isn't taking a very responsible view to driving. Would you want your family near a person like this?

The last sentence was tongue in cheek, obviously. The rest has nothing to do with a need to "grow up".

Rather, some cyclists need to stop being **** heads. (as do some motorists obviously, but it seems to be a much higher proportion of the cyclists I encounter)

Photo of the cyclist in question. Apparently he is on a diet and didn't like to see any food temptations while out on his bike!!

Where in NL are you? In the larger cities yes, cyclists can get a bit unruly but in smaller cities and towns they generally behave quite well. Of course having their own cycle roads and lanes help but the police in Holland are very intolerant of cyclists flouting the law.

Edit: En ja, ik ben ook Nederlands ;)

Rotterdam. I mainly deal with cyclists from a blue plated moped ( though I have a yellow plated scooter too, but since R'dam has banned em off most cycle paths I usually take the blue plated one) and as a car driver, only really cycle when I'm planning to get hammered, or when I'm hammered :D.

I've also been taking motorcycle lessons, and the stupidity of some cyclists is even more obvious then, I'm there learning to drive as defensively as possible, constantly expecting nobody to see me and checking mirrors if nobody rear-ends me, and at the same time you see cyclists taking the right of way, sitting in blind spots, popping from everywhere they shouldn't, etc...

She can't possibly be in full control of the car when she's eating cereal can she?

Why not ? Do you even have a license ? Controlling a car is hardly rocket science, 1 hand is enough, especially in an auto.

Cyclists are not obliged to use cycle paths. I refuse to use them. I am legally allowed to use the road so I will.

That is quite frankly retarded, the law should be changed like here, a sign ''cycle path'' means it is mandatory to use it for cyclists. On a yellow plated moped I actually hate the fact that in many cities you have to go in between cars now, instead of on the cycle paths like before. Cycle paths are much safer and nicer than faffing about between cars. Especially in rush hour, filtering slows you down greatly compared to simply bombing it down a cycle path full throttle.

You haven't seen the standard of cycle paths in the UK recently have you :o

Suggesting cyclists be killed isn't something you do tongue in cheek.

I've probably had my licence longer than you've been alive.

Because me cycling magnificently at 25 MPH on a cycle path where little Timmy is out with his family cycling at 1 MPH isn't going to end in tears at all is it?
 
That situation is going to arise very rarely, and when it does, you can use those two levers on your handlebars which slow you down. But as a cyclist, I doubt you know what they're for. ;)

Stop being silly...
