Is the Eindhoven police doing anything about reckless fat bike riders?
I genuinely enjoy living in Eindhoven, but one thing that has been driving me crazy is the behavior of some teenagers on fat bikes.
This week alone I was almost hit twice. Both times they were riding on the wrong side of the bike lane, zigzagging on purpose as if it was some kind of game. At the last second they swerved away, laughing. It wasn’t an accident, it felt deliberate.
I know not every fat bike rider behaves like this, but this kind of reckless riding seems to be becoming more common, and it makes walking or cycling feel unnecessarily stressful.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know if the Eindhoven police are actually enforcing the rules or taking action against dangerous riding on fat bikes? I’m honestly curious, because it feels like they’re getting away with it.
