Happy to have solved the problem of the school bus driver honking at us every morning.
It's been a week, and not a single honk.
@DrTCombs 😁 creative thinking!
@DrTCombs @breadandcircuses nice tern gsd! 😃
@DrTCombs Love it 😄 ❤️
@DrTCombs Oh 😍😍! I love it!
@DrTCombs did any others honk? (to indicate their love of bikes)
@Bikevisionary no honks. no love. but lots of waves from fellow people on bikes, and that's really who matters. ;)
@DrTCombs oh awesome!
Drivers randomly hooting at me apparently simply because I exist on a bicycle is one of my least favourite things
@DrTCombs I need one for my backpack that says
“ping if you ❤️pedestrians”
@DrTCombs
I took this approach when I participated in the March for Science in 2016. We were causing some traffic and an Old White Man in a pickup truck was loudly honking his displeasure, so I decided he was honking in support and gave him a thumbs-up, waved my sign at him, grin and raised fist, etc. The FURY on his face! It was delicious.
@DrTCombs I sympathise with you in principle, but disagree with you in practice. I don't have a driving license and had cycled a ton to school and back, about 10 kilometres each day, but I had never went on roads dedicated to those big metal murder machines. They hate you for a good reason - they don't want to murder you.
@DrTCombs
Honk!
