Ladies make frequent appearances in our episodes. They all react differently to a sticker on their windshield, and are mostly polite, but some of them get re...
I too agree that pedestrians should have the right to keep and bear arms against motorists. Especially those that intentionally use their vehicles as weapons with the intention to kill.
Though I do think stickers used to bring shame and self reflection are very well deserving in this content.
What you’re describing is a wild west anarchy where people just murder each other because of super minor disagreements.
To solve the issues, governments need to build good and correct cycle infrastructure. See the Netherlands as an example, I can’t even remember ever having an incident where a motorist purposefully hit a cyclist because of a shared road issue.
If is rather obvious what if you mix cars with cyclists that it’s going to cause issues. To play the devil’s advocate for a second; if you’re in a car and you’re supposed to be able to drive fast but you’re stuck behind a guy on a bicycle, that is annoying. But the point is that the cyclist shouldn’t be on the road with cars in the first place.
Adding weapons to that mixture is not going to help, it’s going to escalate small issues to deadly incidents for no good reason. Sorry, guns don’t solve problems, they escalate problems. I want to live in a place where I can happily ride my bike safely, not where I need to ride around with my hand on a gun.

Seems they may have been insinuating that the operators of the motor vehicles in the video clip would be within their right to draw weapons against the pedestrians that were blocking their path. (If this were the USA at least).
Obviously the motorists put themselves in the situation of driving on a sidewalk without regard for anyone’s safety.
Vehicle traffic should always be predictable, and in this case the individuals inside the cars were both showing disregard for pedestrians and their fellow road users.

Absolutely not.

Fix the infrastructure instead.
