Unfortunate experience with cyclists

Anonymous from Krugersdorp writes:

I too had an unfortunate incident with cyclists in Kromdraai.

While driving on the road, I approached two cyclists riding next to each other. The cyclist on the right-hand side was taking up half of the lane.

I also hooted, but nothing happened – they just carried on. When I came up next to them (I had to cross the white line, half way into the next lane) I hooted again, and again they just carried on.

As I drove past them, I saw the cyclist on the right made a gesture with his hand as if to say ” f@#k off”.

They do what they want to do, and if you hoot, then you are in the wrong.

Strangely enough, I thought to myself ‘I wonder what sentence I would have received if I had knocked him off his bike?’ Because there were two cyclists, it’s highly likely I would have been assaulted, or if I had carried on driving, I might have been charged with hit and run.

At Caxton, every story is written by humans. We use AI only to perform quality checks - never to generate the news. Happy reading!
