  1. Imagine being so impatient and stupid af that you try to overtake a literal kid (or any cyclist for that matter), in a big ass bus.

    A: You can’t trust a kid to be as cautious/reactive as you are.

    B: Actually assuming they’re not extremely vulnerable on the road for their age, let alone for the fact they aren’t surrounded by thick metal.

    C: Thinking you somehow have enough leeway/visuals on blindspots, to not hit *anything*, whilst overtaking with a literal bus.

    The driver should be jailed for life imo.

  2. Why’d he beep the kid? Out of anger? I’m always wary of beeping cyclists in the road, incase they get startled and do something like this.
