OV9

I love it how he keeps banging on about the MANDATORY CYCLE LANE and fails not note that a careful and competent rider would anticipate the movement of other road users, including those which may potentially be illegal.

If he felt that the taxi driver 'swerved' (after briefly indicating, and with an emergency vehicle behind them - something that should have been very easy to anticipate) and 'slammed on their brakes' (from about 20mph by the looks, taking several seconds to slow down to a crawl) then it's his competence that's being called into question - an eight year old could have seen that coming.

I'd go as far as to suggest he may genuinely have been trying to cause an accident, because that level of incompetence just isn't normal if they were behaving in good faith.

I’ve seen some self-righteousness from cyclists but I think that tops the lot.

I’m going to assume his wife lives her life devoid of sexual gratification.

I'm going to assume he hasn't 'achieved' a 'wife'.

The highway code is his wife, and the road traffic act his sultry mistress.

(he wanks himself raw, yet impotently, to dashcam footage)

I recognize the name from previous postings. I'm not going to take a cheap shot and sound like a sheep on a bandwagon, I'm going to look at it from a different perspective to take something positive from it; he's consistent.

I assume the fire engine is following right behind the camera cyclist as the clip starts - you can see the reflection of the blue flashing lights on the ground. Why on earth is he not slowing down and letting the fire engine past? Utter imbecile.

Because the most important person on the road at that moment is him, and certainly not the emergency vehicle with its blue lights and siren on.

what a penis. if he fell off his bike into the road and broke his back, i bet he’d still be shouting at traffic driving around him if they dared go into the MANDATORY BIKE LANE.

No, audio of siren is definitely a way behind at the start. The flashing light you see on the ground is his own front light, which is confirmed by the reflection in the back of the taxi when he's nasally reading out the number plate.

More than 24 hours on and he is still going, hopefully the penny will drop but I doubt it.

His entire personality relies on him quite specifically not doing so.

You know, being an aggravating, wrong twat.

chap on a bike spotted earlier…

Currently 87% yes

Yeah he's getting fucking rinsed in the comments.




There is an offence for being a danger in charge of a bicycle, isn't there?

I wonder if Plod get much opportunity to exercise that one....

How do cars park without crossing the cycle lane in that clip ?
Not a London road expert, but I do know red route bylaws allow crossing of cycle lanes on certain situations.

Fairly sure there are exemptions for access etc and it's the driving in the lane that's the kicker, but the poster has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are a deeply unserious person, and shouldn't be given the oxygen/effort of thought that an otherwise serious person would get.

So don't overthink it - guys a fucking moron looking to get clicks because they've got nowt else in their life.

He's tried so very hard to create a conflict situation, that he might now qualify for a job on the telly/radio.

Even Mikey has suggested his misalignment with the opinion of the original poster.

Ah, I see that it is his flashing light. Oddly blue. Isn't that an offence too?

And crossing the white line - that's an offence, is it not? Mandatory cycle lane seems to be a term he uses a lot but he's not in it, despite being mandatory...

I wonder if he feels aggrieved that even Cycling Mikey isn't on his side?

The light probably looks more blue due to it being a fairly high colour temp (But not obnoxiously so) and then the gopro doing a shit job of colour balancing at night, etc.
