Who's the bigger knob?
I know it's the BMW really, brake testing is properly dangerous as some fun videos on here have shown, but I just can't help but feel more hatred for the fking self-righteous cammer.

It amazes me that people like the driver of the camera car seem stead fast in their belief they're an innocent party and haven't provoked a reaction from someone equally nobbish yet just more aggressive.Skip to two minutes

EDIT just read the video description, he said there was a car in lane 1 stopping him moving back over. He should have put his foot down a little to get passed then pulled in sooner.

though that wasn't brake testing. that was just slowing the cam car down to annoy them.

So frustrating seeing the cam car sat in the outside lane while making no progress on the car in lane 1. He must have been blocking the BWM overtake on purpose rather than just being unaware of his positioning.
EDIT just read the video description, he said there was a car in lane 1 stopping him moving back over. He should have put his foot down a little to get passed then pulled in sooner.
The camcar is an MLM. When there is no middle lane, MLMs use (i.e. cruise in) Lane 2 of 2 (as here) or Lane 3 of 4.EDIT just read the video description, he said there was a car in lane 1 stopping him moving back over. He should have put his foot down a little to get passed then pulled in sooner.

True, I've been brake tested before and it's not that gentle.though that wasn't brake testing. that was just slowing the cam car down to annoy them.
I'd like to know where this mysterious car on the inside was when he was 1/3 of the way across the inside lane coming off the roundabout. He wants that camera sticking up his arse.

There wasn't any car there at all as you can see from the preceeding 20 seconds of the clip, unless something started undertaking him but then that just further proves he was needlessly in lane 2.poing said:
Yes this tiny flashy light is enough.... If you are a monumental idiot then it's just fine! If you don't want people to pull out in front of you then make yourself visible. Then again, what the hell am I saying! He was also drinking and smoking dope so I guess it all goes together.
When I go out at night with my 800lumen lights I get cars flashing their main beams at me constantly, even though I've set them to be the sake spread as my car lights. You can't win as a cyclist and in this case it's 100% the driver not judging the speed of the cyclist correctly. You don't need bright flashy lights to be seen at night either, otherwise every pedestrian out at night crossing a road would have been killed by now.TheAllSeeingPie said:

I don't take chances; I have a Knog Blinder on pulse and a solid 1800 lumen cree main light (with a courteous beam spread, not into the eyes of oncoming traffic). To the rear I have a pair of LED lights, one flash, one solid with lasers. I also have another small LED light high up on the back of my helmet,Here's just the solid rear on its own (you can see the other one just above it):

Well no, youre missing something subtle there. Not having lights doesnt mean pedestrians can walk about in the road and hope for the best. If you live in rural areas you'll know that school kids often wear black on dark nights along country lanes. However if they see/hear something coming they'll tuck themselves out of the way in the hedege until it's gone past. It's not until you're past you realise, hey there were a couple of faces in the hedge there. If you have a bit of light, all it gives you is the right to put on your tombstone, 'I had a candle and they were supposed to give way but they didnt see me'.
The biggest factor in accidents is 'not looking properly' for all road users. You can look but you may not see, your brain has a habit of filling in gaps. Look up SMIDSY if you want to know more

As said above, the biggest factor is not looking properly, my daughter never used to look before crossing the road where I live, not a lot of traffic I admit, but I told her she would hear a bicycle coming, and they hurt.
One other thing I did for my children was to measure out the stopping distance for a car travelling at 30 mph, and told them to think about it. In my school days we had the annual police exhibition in the playground, with police cars whizzing around and in those days with no ABS it was enlighning to see those cars skid to a halt.
Whoops got carried away here, sorry chaps. As my Royal Marine instructor told me on my HGV3 course, treat everyone else on the road as a complete idiot.
