Is this the third lane everyone is talking about? SMH!
On a YELLOW LINE! Even if someone is parked you proceed with caution. No parking at all on Yellow lines. cheez !!!
Really!! Seriously NO WHERE SLOW!!!
Bermudian drivers. Half of them are absolute idiots.
Tail gating behind the exhaust of any vehicle is not healthy.
It is safer and wiser to stay well back.
Over taking always comes with a big price.
In a hurry going nowhere? The recklessness and couldn’t-care-less attitudes of some riders and drivers on Bermuda’s roads is a joke!
The police should take this a step further and start showing licence plates. You may find drivers/riders driving/riding more cautiously on the roads if their identities were exposed. Seems lately car drivers are driving more recklessly on top of the bike riders consistently riding recklessly.
