[*BCM*] haters on yelp

[Curran, Caitlin]

I guess that whole "Share the road" concept is lost on some... er,
most... drivers.

Then there is the lady who believes it should be ok to ram cyclists, it
should even be a law that it's ok in her view.   Yep that's who has
licenses to drive in this state folks.   I commute 20 miles each way to
work and have been doing so for about 5 years now.  It's much worse in
places like Saugus or Revere when you're the only cyclist on a road.  In
Boston if a car purposely tries to scare you, there is a chance you can
catch him or at least get his plate number.  Out here people come too
close go too fast and sometime purposely try to scare me and then race
off.   Nothing I can do even if they mow me down like this lady believes
it's her right to do.  This happens on Lincoln Rd in Lynn and Revere for
example.   I for one yearn for gas prices to hit 15 dollars a gallon.
That way, jerks like this lady can't drive a machine that can easy kill
someone or worse.   The worse is if a car hits me and I'm paralised my
wife's life and my child's life is also ruined when the bank takes our
house.   What a miserable lady.  I don't care what cyclist cut her off
or anything else that a cyclist did to piss her off, it doesn't give her
the right to ruin someone's life.

I really like the girl who asked if it was okay to use firearms on
cyclist. Guess its time to create a Yelp account now.

don't know if any of you have yelp profiles, 

but if you do there is a discussion that could use a bit more of a
bikers perspective:
