I also have to cycle through this area (Washington Heights, NYC) on my commute to Manhattan.

People are very uneducated, aggressive, double or triple park + don't respect cyclists one bit.

New York no different than any other large city, Dallas
,London, Berlin , Park City, Rome, San Francisco, etc.. Cycler don't use Bike lanes and drivers are always in a hurry.
That's the way of the world. The moment your enter a potential dangerous area Find a different route. But most of all. Turn off the music, put the phone in your pocket. Expect the unexpected.

The cyclist is claiming he got pinned but you don't see that in the video. All you see is the argument.

Yeah I noticed that but you still can't really tell anything from that. All I see is ignorance.

Video has so much hilarity, that I don't even know where to begin. I don't have the time for all of it right now. I'll just leave this here though:

"White man, take the L and get the fvck outta here!"

*same breath*

"Go my n1gga!!"

Ok but the video is not of Washington Heights. This is Christopher St - West Village area.

So all residents of Washington Heights are uneducated, agressive, etc? Your post is somewhat racist and bias.

I like the dark and melancholy tone of the soundtrack that the youtuber used. Also, like the youtuber stated: nyc-transplant-150988 you need to take this L and go away!!
