Is a crossing point wide enough for a car and a bike?

Not safely, and one shouldn't overtake on the zigzags anyway.

Can't see why the driver was annoyed: there was no actual delay to his journey.

I've only just seen this thread so I apologise for bringing back the original(ish) subject. In the second video, I personally wouldn't have pulled out in front of the Mercedes at the roundabout, that was a bit close for my liking. The driver trying to overtake off the roundabout is wrong, but I feel the cyclist is a bit precious. The "Watch how close this is!" comment in particular, I'd have been happy enough being given that much room on that road. Likewise, it may be the video making it look better, but I'd have thought the car would have plenty of space to pass and leave enough room for the cyclist where he simply rides in the middle of the road.

The next comment, I don't know if he tries to make out the Skoda driver is dangerous or just to illustrate it's the type of thing all road users need to watch out for, I hope it's the latter.

And as for trying to pass in front of the red people carrier, that was just moronic. The driver was simply hoping for a gap to open up while there was no traffic coming from his right, and wasn't let out. I don't think he was that much of an idiot, as if he simply waited at the give way line he'd be there all day!
