Didn't notice that. Fucking terrifying.

Jesus that's terrifying, I know the camera is a little fogged up but imagine focusing on something on the road that makes you not see that and you go right into that

I'll assume your vision was better than the video? Those ramps should at least have lights

Ban cars (so we can have real loading zones).

Good thing our eyes are not camera lenses and we have the ability to stop

That's for real one of my biggest fears while riding around NYC...

Wow. The same happened to me @ 7th Ave & 52nd St last month. Still get the shivers when recalling the moment.

Damn with the water drops on the camera I didn't notice that and thought the guy was just gonna randomly back up. Good call.

Stuff like this is why I always slow down at intersections. You saved the guy behind you just by slowing down (not that you had much of a choice).

They're supposed to do one of two things: fold it away when not being actively used or put something on top so people can see that there's obviously something there. I can't point out any specific regulation for it, but I've heard of people doing this for safety. Space in NYC is tight, but that's not an excuse to not think "safety first".

Those trucks are the fucking worst. Roll around at 5am to start making deliveries. They unfold that screechy ass platform thing and let it drop like a fucking hammer to wake up the entire damn street. I guess that wasn't enough for this guy, he was going for a decapitation on top of it.

I almost ran into something similar like that Saturday in midtown on my e-scooter. I haven't stopped thinking about the possibility of having my head chop off if I wasn't careful.

Wahhhhh someone making a delivery of something really important like food or goods impeded on my mission to be lance Armstrong around the city. So now I have to post it on Reddit for karma points. Grow the fuck up Jesus Christ.
