On July 20, 2010 6:49 PM in Cyclist Hit by Express Bus in Union Square, they said:

That's a laugh. Go ahead and watch that intersection and count the number of buses running lights. Then come back and tell us all about what great drivers those guys are....

On July 20, 2010 6:47 PM in Cyclist Hit by Express Bus in Union Square, they said:

Union Square is horrible. Also, those Express Buses drive like maniacs. I'm not saying the cyclist was in the clear necessarily, but stand on the corner of 14th and Broadway for 1 hour during rush hou...

On July 20, 2010 12:46 PM in Killer Bikes Terrorize NY! Pedestrians, Drivers Under Siege!, they said:

Basically the road user with the greatest potential to kill and maim should be subject to the greatest regulation. - Speeding in a car is incredibly reckless in a crowded urban environment and speed...

On July 17, 2010 11:56 AM in Video: Williamsburg Locals React To Hugs, they said:

Oh come on. Any group who takes their "look" that seriously deserves their share of ridicule. Their "look" -- 80s JCPenney glasses and fixed-gear bike included -- is now buyable at Urban Outfitters, a...

OF COURSE Critical Mass has devolved into a confrontational shit-fest. The regular cyclists have been weeded out years ago by escalating police tactics. It used to be something that was barely even me...

On July 13, 2010 12:37 PM in MTA Wants to Close Budget Gap With Oxymoron, they said:

Raising fares and cutting service on non-peak hours is, from a business standpoint, quite efficient. Expect much, much more of the same if the system were ever privatized. We'd probably even see the e...

On July 13, 2010 12:36 PM in MTA Wants to Close Budget Gap With Oxymoron, they said:

No mass transit system "breaks even", any more than any highway or bridge "breaks even". We pay taxes so we can have a transportation system. Some of that money goes to roads and bridges, some of it g...

On June 17, 2010 6:39 PM in Food Truck Vendors Lash Out at Proposed City Council Bill, they said:

With stores every block or two throughout the city, I have no idea why we need trucks parked in crosswalks and bike lanes, all the while spewing exhaust fumes. There are laws against idling engines, f...

On March 9, 2009 5:27 PM in MTA Waits For A Bailout From Albany, they said:

The vast majority of New Yorkers DO NOT OWN CARS. Click through to tell the State Senate to save subway service: http://ga3.org/campaign/amigos/...

On February 18, 2009 5:44 PM in Drunk Man Wins $2.3 Million for Falling in Front of Subway, they said:

That was my first thought too. All too often they settle crap like this out of court. And we get treated to nanny rules like "no changing cars". As the first poster put it, we'd be better off if this ...

On February 12, 2009 4:34 PM in Van Unknowingly Drags Man's Body 17 Miles On 3 Highways, they said:

"No charges are expected for either driver." Sound familiar? Watch yourselves, fellow pedestrians. We have little or no protection from cars under the laws of this state....

On February 12, 2009 4:32 PM in Passenger Bill of Rights for Livery Cars, they said:

Now how about putting some meters in those damned things so you don't have to play games with them when it comes to the price. ...

On February 12, 2009 4:29 PM in Police Identify Man Dragged 20 Miles From Queens to Brooklyn, they said:

Oh, OK. Just another "accident", like that van driver in Chinatown who left his vehicle in reverse and crushed two children to death. As long as it's an accident, no need for any kind of criminal pena...

I believe the relocation of Madison Square Garden is now dead -- thank God. They're moving Penn into a much nicer building to get away from that piece of shit. ...
