Bicyclist Assaults Bus Driver

A FREE SPEECHER WRITES

Anyone that knows the name of the 30-something child on a bicycle that threw a container of water through the window of a Fayette County school bus, hitting the bus driver in the face, endangering 50-plus students on board, please call Fayette County Board of Education. Also, we the citizens would like to thank the PTC police department for NOT coming to the aid of that bus driver. What is wrong with this picture? I have children that ride the school bus and it upset me to observe what happened. If the bus driver did something to upset the 30-something, then he should have called the Fayette County Board of Education and complained. In my eyes, I feel this was an assault on that bus driver, and that 30-something needs to have his bicycle taken away from him, and some therapy on anger management.

Thanks IMNSHO for helping us to understand how and why the PTC Police responded to this incident. See this link for his explanation: You don't know what you are talking about.

Now let's go to the newly enacted Georgia law that permits motor vehicles to run down bicyclists who impede traffic and act in a rude and nasty manner.

Current Status
04/27/06 - Senate Date Signed by Governor

A BILL to be entitled an Act to amend Article 2 of Chapter 3 of Title 16 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to justification and excuse as a defense to certain crimes, so as to provide that a person who is attacked has no duty to retreat; to provide that such person has a right to meet force with force, including deadly force; to provide for an immunity from prosecution; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes. This bill pertains to the ever increasing issues of bicyclist and car jackers who harass, intimidate, and or assault a motor vehicle operator.

Hope that helps folks. I'm just here to help.

Thanks Lion

Does that include the Fayette county bike club that encourages their members to break the law, by riding more than 2 across? Not only do they ride 3 or more across, but the weave down the center line so that cars coming from the other direction can't get by either. So much for GA state law that says they have to stay as far to the right as possible.

When will the police and or sheriff's deputies going to put a stop to this hazard?

This is an every weekend occurance on Goza Rd, Bernhard Rd, Redwine Rd. Antioch, and Woolsey.

When are our officers going to enforce GA state law? After someone gets killed?

Rubber Hose

When I am cruising in my Kia I always have a rubber hose. Usually in case I run out of gas. But it comes in handy for rude bicycle riders too. I'm saving up for a Prius so I may not need the hose in the future - by then I will hate them so much I will probably just dump my ashtray on them .... with hot seeds in it.... and some firecrackers ..... and some honey and ants. Maybe.
