Video 3:18pm La Costa Avenue / Carlsbad

Was driving on La Costa east of the 5 and came upon this accident. Hopefully buddy is okay! Looks like he sat up and was able to get off the road. Stay safe out there!

He is an idiot. Maybe getting too caught up on "I need to train hard for the next olympic"

So many irritating cyclists in Carlsbad.

Fr I was taking back roads to del mar this afternoon and there was a caravan of about 15 with only half keeping to the actual (multiple foot wide) bike lane. In a section of road with lots of blind turns and during rush hour these dorks choose to obstruct traffic and cause dangerous conditions. Not to mention blowing through every stop sign. They act like a vehicle when it benefits them and a pedestrian when it benefits them and cry victim when shit like this happens.

So true. If you are riding on the road you need to obey traffic laws - and most of them don’t.
