I've been taken out twice on my road bike, cut up 3 times and narrowly missed by drivers pulling out in front of me or cutting across to turn left coz they couldn't wait 10 seconds. I've seen bad cyclists and bad motorists. The only difference is on a bike you come off worst wether it's your fault or not

I was 17 and cycling to work back in 1983 one morning when a parked car on my left opened his door all of a sudden catching my left shoulder tearing me of my bike.I was left a heap in the road whilst some good office workers called for the ambulance. I nearly got run over by the car following me. I used to be a Cyclist and see it both ways but after one of the pratts last week deliberately smashed my audi wing mirror after an argument at the lights i tend to see them as arrogant f**kers who don't pay any road tax yet hog the road as if no one else is around.And i am talking about heavily built up areas here,London Suburbs.

When i jumped out of my car the 6ft 4 toffee nosed middle manager shot of sharpish.He was already out of sight but i tied to follow him,he had just disappeared.

I avoid the road like the plague because of this , many a driver don't see you and I ride with my off road night lights lit up during the day . Road craft on both sides is shocking these days and I ride very much aware of other users and watch them ( I'm on 4.5k of bike ) and don't want to get hit again or cut up . It's much safer falling off in the woods or hitting trees ... Which I do . The guy in this clip should have his bike stuffed up his arse tbh

Yep.....Agree 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When i used to cycle everywhere i always stuck towards the gutters for fear of big heavy steel boxes on wheels that could at the blink of an eye win any tussle with me.I respected drivers and the road.
