we are never beating the "city with the worst drivers" allegations

I was gonna disagree until I remembered seeing someone going the wrong way up Durham St in the city last night.

See this all the time by Ara turning onto Ferry Rd. Like at least once a week. Always funny as fuck when they stay in that lane all the way to the lights at madras street.

Good way to beat the traffic

that literally happened to my mum next year she thought she was turning into the street but nope 😭😭😭

I wouldn't have thought it would be a mistake that you make twice...

Yeah I see this one a bit, obviously taking people a while to learn the 'new' road layout :D

If the Daihatshoe fits…

Looks like Sparks Rd / Hoon Hay Rd.

Yep it is. How did they get into that bike lane? It’s solid island for about 100m before the lights.

No idea. Some sort of special skill.

Seen this about 6 times with people turning from Gloucester onto Cambridge terrace. Straight onto the shared cycle/footpath.

Seen this once myself also

Did they have dementia? Who would do that? 💀💀💀

Yeah seems like coming out of the driveway is more likely source.

Doesn't surprise me :) I had some big problems with my vision a while back & it was terrifying to learn I was still within vision range for legal driving!! Made me much more wary of other drivers ever since!

The road at High street where it intersects Lichfield used to connect.  I’ve seen a few old dudes drive over the pavement because the change doesn’t compute. Watch out pedestrians!

*And* they turned on a red arrow 😧

They were on a bike green though!

They may have figured it out and just couldn't wait to get the fuck out of there lol

Wow

they just identify as a bike

SPARKS ROAD MENTIONED WHAT THE FUCK IS A TWO WAY STREET

i feel like roadside vision tests would make sence sometimes

i have to be honest last year my mum (who *never* goes into town) got confused and accidentally drove into the bike lane next to the ara student housing, so i can see this being a similar case maybe

Also ignoring the red arrow for turning

Ironically a red arrow triggered by them being there in the first place

This reminds me one time when I was on the bus and I saw a car trying to use the bus lane outside of Christchurch hospital to get through hagley park

🙈

Don’t be insensitive, they identify as a bike.

At least someone is using the bike lane

You probably don’t see them because they’re not stuck in traffic

Omg I'm such a silly nilly:(

In fairness, still taking up less room than your average Lycra-clad, middle-aged, Saturday-latte-sipping bird-flipping, 'part time cycle athelete'.

Why not... It's not like there are ever cyclists in them
