The Audi Driver vs. The Cyclist

Okay, I'm guessing you guys have seen this video? And if you haven't, lemme do a quick synopsis... The video is taken from a cyclists helmet and shows a bunch of cyclists pulling up to a traffic light with a white Audi A7 (beauty).... The Audi rolls forward into the cycle lane... Seeing this, one of the cyclists rolls back and tells him 'this is a cycle lane'... The traffic light turns green and the Audi blasts off leaving the cyclists behind... After a few minutes, all the cycles catchup again (I'm guessing this is Central London so no surprise) and the same cyclist knocks on the driver side window shouting profanity at the driver... The driver gets out and knocks the cyclist the f*ck down... Here's the video to see for yourself:

Now I'ma explain why I'm on the drivers side in this... Yeah, surprise surprise - I accept I am biased - I despise cyclists (even though my father is one)... But hear me out...

Tax

There’s something that I really hate in this country… Not really tax as a whole, but just how much we get taxed… And it feels like it’s never going anywhere useful… Not only that but it feels like we get taxed for absolutely everything I just got a letter in the post for import tax - I bought a car part in June from Taiwan for £25 and paid £15 shipping (it’s worth about £60 in England) and I get a letter in late september asking for £15 tax… What the f*ck was the point of that? It feels like the fine I got early this month...
