This thread isn't even an hour old, and already it is totally apparent why society in our country and ON specifically, (and GTA even more specifically) would never embrace filtering for the sense that it makes if it is done properly. So far the OP has indicated a pretty non-aggressive stance with their filtering, even when threatened with this *******'s CAR! Physically threatened with a vehicle over 5 times his bike's weight. Paul, I am amazed that you claim the offduty/ ******* was only 'filtering' also. How in hell can you see it that way, when he forcibly (and for no reason other than to bully and make a you-ain't-gettin'-to-work-sooner-than-me statement) went into the OP's lane to squeeze and intimidate?
Comments like this ooze evidence that you all have spent too much time in GTA, sitting in traffic alongside too many drivers who shouldn't even be behind the wheel. You all are fed up with an over-saturated roadway infrastructure and your patience/attitude has adopted a more child-like stance, rather than realize that if smaller vehicles can filter through and get to where they are going faster, simply because they can, you can't stand the idea that someone else's life might be just a tad better for that split moment in time. It is a quite simply a very selfish attitude.
And if any of you doubt that, and support some bully cage wannabe cop using his ****ing CAR (and badge) as a road weapon, then you get what you deserve. Hopefully the badge was a fake.
