Entirely unashamed anti car propaganda, and the more the better.

Mr Hooper claimed Mr Burns had punched him twice through the window of the farm vehicle he was driving, bursting his lip.
"I thought it is time to get out of there, and I said, 'If you don't move it, I will'," he told the court.
"My mind was racing."
Mr Hooper said he was concerned at what the two young men might do and "what they had in terms of weapons".
"I thought if the car was off the property, that would be them off the property, out of the way," he added.

Much as I might enjoy flipping over someone's car in such a dispute, I'm not sure I would conclude that this action would end the matter, or that it would reduce the chances of them attacking me with weapons.

From Nextdoor. Won’t anyone think of the poor drivers who are unable to see what’s on the pavement as they drive over it!

Attacking women drivers now, goat man?

Shame on you.

“My car is badly designed and has huge blind spots due to its size. Also, I’m driving on the pavement due to being a selfish, inconsiderate, arsehole”

These people are just fucking thick.

The fact that’s your take away speaks volumes about the Jeremy Clarkson wannabe you are.

Now imagine that was a cargo bike. Or a tandem. Or an adapted wheelchair trike. Or a hand cycle trike. Or any other of the many options that are available for disabled people. Or a double buggy.

Then shut up.

Yea, they’d be able to both see it, and easily move around it, you tiresome tit.

Have you tried telling a blind person they ought to be able to see pavement obstructions and move around them?

This is all they’ve got, it’s desperate.

This is the pavement in question by the way.

I’ve had blind family members, worked with both the RNIB and Guide Dogs, and volunteered with an organisation that supports both visually impaired and other physically disabled cyclists. But sure, go ahead and try to argue that infrastructure designed to stop cars from driving on the pavement is a bad thing.

Yes it's appalling. Why not a standard full-height bollard

I mean, how could anyone possibly get around such monumental obstructions as that?

 

[Athos]

Is hard to conceive of any legitimate reason for any car mount the pavement there!

Fuck me - I’ll break it down for you.

Cars shouldn’t be driving on pavements.

Drivers should be able to see massive objects in their way.

 

[platinumsage]

Sure, so why not place a proper bollard there, rather than some sneaky floor-level thing that is clearly just as much a danger to pedestrians as it is to cars?

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

The only reason it could be considered appalling is the fact it’s even needed in the first place.

 

[liquidindian]

If you're angry about bell bollards and want to end them, why not form a campaign group? You just need to figure out a name for those who want to end bells.

It isn’t dangerous to pedestrians.

Because they are designed to stop heavy vehicles that a "proper bollard" would not.

“Sneaky”

Next up: instead of kerb stones why not have sneaky spike traps to catch out cyclists and motorists who ought not to be mounting pavements?

“I want to drive wherever I want”

As ever, this is the only argument they have.
