Woody Allen gets in touch with his Nimby side as he leads campaign against New York cycle path

When your reaction time is down to zero and you can't walk or see you can still drive around in Mr. Ford's nightmare while you drool so long as two things happen:

1) The state continues to license unfit drivers.

2) Those damn cyclists and pedestrians don't get in your way and cause you to lose your license by committing suicide being on the same road with you.

Hey woody! Can you hear me? It's time to use your money to hire a driver! Hey Woody! Woody!

He says the road’s too narrow for a bike lane and already busy with school and hospital traffic.

Forgive me for pointing out the obvious, but if more people cycle (or walk), then there is less congestion from cars, therefore the roads will be less busy. I appreciate that hospital traffic is a bit different, but anything, making the roads less busy will also benefit the hospital traffic.

What an idiot...

That Midnight in Paris film was good fun. Not much more to be said on Woody vs cycle lanes, really.

The guy's a bag of shit! So how come suddenly we listen to opinions from bags of shit?

and people don't squeegee my windshield when I come to a stoplight

This is the line that betrays Allen. He plainly always travels by car, and thinks of that as the 'right' way to travel. People on bikes are people who are not like me, so it's fine to spout a lot of prejudice dressed up as facts.

It's funny really. You'd think he might have a bit more insight into human character and motivation, given his job, and that he could be able to apply that insight to himself. But obviously not. 

living in the UES, we dont really need more cyclelanes, just drivers that can drive and pederstrians that look before stepping out in the the street. Most of the "bad" cyclists are the posh tw@ts on citi bikes and the delivery guy's 

He's just looking for publicity for his new movie. 

"Honey, I f**ked the kids"

So bike lanes are an accident waiting to happen, but huge NY roads full of huge NY motor traffic is just fine and dandy. Hmm... 

Woody, time you gave up the comedy, you're not funny any more.

He'd be all right with it if cyclists were mostly lyric clad jailbait.

"The road is too narrow for a bike lane". 

It's wide enough for fucking cars!

Come on, I think some people here are being a little unfair. Still, Woody should think about the consequences if his campaign were to succeed. If there aren't any cycle lanes in his neighbourhood, how is he going to teach his future wife how to ride her bike? You know, the one with the My Little Pony decals, pink tassels and stabilizers.

that is what is all about fellas, the fucking wife beater and his fucking windshield. people like this do not care about bicycles, forests, spring and summer. they only care about their fucking windshield, thats it.

Isn't he a pedo?

What an Allen key...
