    I love it! Can someone translate the stickers?

    I got to say though watching some of these interactions with total strangers makes me tense. Especially when the drivers act all tough behind the wheel. Some basically wanting to end your life so they themselves can gain a few extra seconds in their lives.

      And yeah, drivers get really fucking unhinged when you challenge their sense of entitlement. I’ve been deliberately rammed by drivers more than once while trying to keep them out of a bike lane. (The incidents forced the city to install plastic barriers to keep out the cars, so I won. The lesson is that this sort of direct action is a very effective tactic.)

      We’ve known that driving makes people fucking crazy since at least 1960, BTW:

          Not that I know of (and if there were, I wouldn’t link it because it would doxx me).
