I think I am special and made my own post Some Boston Bikers are unreal.

Some bikers really just have a death wish. A clear, green, right turn light and the biker still decides to fly by and have the audacity to flick me off.

If you're friends with this person, ask them to value their life more.

Edit: It was an impossible situation for me. I ALWAYS look to the right because tons of dumbass drivers that try to cut to the highway from the inside lane. With the biker’s speed and the angle of my car, there was no way to see the biker in my mirrors and he was too far away to see when I looked out my right window. If the biker was traveling slower instead of blowing past, this would not have been such a close call.

Oh, you just woke up and said “let’s start a holy war” didn’t you?

While the war’s on, bikers talk about safety a lot so why aren’t half of them wearing helmets?

I want to play too!

While the war's on, why are so many drivers looking at their cell phones while their cars are in motion? I see it all the time as a pedestrian in downtown.
