In 1817, Karl Von Drais invented the bicycle. His incessant riding in the middle of the road brought the city of Baden to a standstill. The tradition has persisted ever since. Bikers everywhere behave like total knobs in an effort to honor his memory.

This subreddit is for videos, articles, stories, and memes, of goofy, bad, dangerous and/or reckless cycling.

RULES:

  1. /r/entitledbikers is meant to be a lighthearted, humorous subreddit. If your post does not contribute to the nature of the sub it will be removed.

  2. No posts or comments inciting violence, especially against cyclists. Name calling is allowed, but saying people should die is a little overboard.

  3. Be civil. We will not tolerate racism, bigotry, or toxicity.

If your post doesn't show up, please message the mods.

As a final word we are not an anti-cycling subreddit, we are an anti-bad cycling subreddit. We understand the content matter of this sub can be frustrating, infuriating, even dangerous. That said, where possible, we should try to keep conversation lighthearted to avoid unnecessary toxicity to create a sub people would want to be a part of.

What are the cycling laws in my area?

Bush Highway Cyclists Need To Read AZ Title 28

Three times this morning I almost hit an ignorantly entitled cyclist on the Bush Highway because they weren't staying in the bike lane and none had flashing lights on. I had to honk at them and they all gave me the finger. As a cyclist myself I know it is VERY important to understand the rules of the road more than you understand bicycle etiquette. When there is a bike lane provided on the side of the road that is the only place on the road a cyclist is entitled to ride unbothered unless they are passing a slower cyclist. In that case the standard rules of driving and lane changes apply; check the lane to make sure it's clear and signal your intent. If that's too difficult to comprehend then stay off the roads because you are a shitty driver and you're bound to cause an accident.

For your comprehension:
Title 28-815 A - A person riding a bicycle on a roadway at less than the normal speed of traffic at the time and place and under the conditions then existing shall ride as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway...

Title 28-815 B - Persons riding bicycles on a roadway shall not ride more than two abreast except on paths or parts of roadways set aside for the exclusive use of bicycles

To clarify; when there is no designated bike lane on a road cyclists can ride two abreast and are entitled to the entire right lane as long as they are keeping up with traffic speeds (the 20 mph under the posted speed limit) and if there is a designated bike lane you must stay in it or follow the rules for any vehicle on the road if you need to enter the lane.

Don't push it, folks. There are some really bad drivers out there that don't like bikes.

Entitled Biker and Motorist in one! Nobody needs to be able to see my license plate.

I’m not sure how this can be legal, or at least not enforced, but any other covering of a plate is illegal. I see people like this multiple times a day.
