I am not an cyclists badger but an active cyclist from youth on. If I go mountain biking (which became seldom the last years) I do brake before I scare hikers.
You might be right that idiocy is a fast growing illness nowadays. But I see it more often related to cyclists. There is a broad feeling of „those rules are not made for me but for pedestrians or cars“
While the mistakes of car drivers towards cyclists are mostly based on (gross) negligence, the mistakes of cyclists are often a deliberate breaking of the rules.
Its exactly like so - lived for about 8 years near Münster - NorthRhine Westphalia Region and also time in Dusseldorf.
Münster is merely considered as the "capital" of cyclists. - And I am most certainly not a cyclist basher. Use one myself (mine has lights, proper brakes and anything that is required and its maintained. And I obey the road code - both as car driver and as cyclist.
There is a cliche on certain types of car drivers but also on bike users.
There are ones in Münster / Greven, - wear hv Jackets, hard hat, lighting, and obey street signs and signals.
There are the other type . no lights, carbon, hat perhaps, - ignoring everything, The bicycle they own approx 2-6kEuros . carbon rim etc..
All of these guys seem to have a driving license. .. but seem to forget once on a bike - So they consider themeselves as superior to both pedestrians, parents with children and anyone motorized. And often protected by law. (except in Münster.. the police is quite rigid on misbehaving cyclists there.
One experience I had in Dusseldorf near Seestern there was a bike courier.. passing just stopped in front of a passing tram. then crossed in 4 lane traffic ignoring traffic lights and forcing many cars to emergency brake - nearly causing accident. His reaction - showing the long finger to all others.
Not possible to tell what went shortly through my mind witnessing this. Today I see this far more relaxed.. Still I do not have a general prejudice against cyclists or any participating egoist "species" . Ususally the Universe will teach a lesson to those .. often sooner than later. (hope in this lesson is no innocent invoked)
