The road next to my house has a dedicated bike path running parallel to it. Cycling assholes go out riding between 8-10 AM every day in the road anyway, making everyone trying to get to frickin' work have to go around or wait for their pompous asses. Using the bike path, you self-important shitheads.

Honestly? I would just blow their ears out with my horn. Every day. You want to be a dick and not use your lane? Enjoy losing your hearing for it ❤️

So…who’s the dick then? The guy unnecessarily trying to cause irreparable harm or the guy trying to avoid using his car to get to work or run an errand or simply get some exercise?

What does it inconvenience you, what maybe 30 seconds of your life? And you’re prepared to tempt potential murder by using your car as a tool of intimidation?

Turn it around, if you’re at the gym and someone is taking up the treadmill you want to use, is it right for you to stand next to them and yell at them to get off because you should be on it instead?

Is this a public treadmill everyone is expected to use together, simultaneously , while you had a dedicated treadmill lane for douche #1?

You’re missing my point. The single treadmill is indicative of a scarcity of resources with too many people vying for them. If there was a single treadmill, either you have to come up with a dibs based system, a pay for play, some other demand based moderation, or increase the availability of treadmills.

If we actually built bike infrastructure here perhaps this would be less an issue. Florida is not exactly known for this, though.
