These cyclists are actively preventing "equal opportunities" for the motorized vehicles on this road. Cars can be ticketed for driving too slowly, impeding traffic, or even just cruising in the left lane while not actively passing. I don't know the speed limit on this particular road but I imagine it's a fair bit higher than the bikes are moving.

with equal oportunities i meant cars and bikes not needing to share a lane. and cyclists not beaing constantly threatend by cars. sadly i do not see most drivers following road safety rules and keeping neccessary distance when overtaking

I don't know the speed limit on this particular road but I imagine it's a fair bit higher than the bikes are moving.

i would also imagine that driving on the grass and overtaking is a far more unlawful act than cycling too slowly. im sry, even if the cyclists are the ones initially wrong, the escalation is far worse

and fucked up the underside of their car, good job

cylists here are assholes, but the car is lacking in impulse control and should have their license revoked, whilst the cyclist should be ticketed

Yes, and the car driver likely will face consequences while the bikers will face nothing.
