I guess that's the path then. Bad guess on my part.

8 mins in, cyclist gets annoyed when tooted at as he's not in the cycle lane.

Edited by Byker28i on Tuesday 26th July 16:47

I might be blind, but I don't see a cycle lane for the cyclist to move into?

On the other side of the armco on their left.

Nope. Don't see it at all unless I'm missing it. There's no lines separating pavement from cycle lane, there's no entry point from where the cyclist is, there's no exit on the other side either.

And if there is a 'compulsory' cycle lane why bother with the ASL for cyclists?

Why do they shout out number plates? If their cameras are decent, it will show them, surely.

In case the camera misses it.

4:30 dashcam driver needs their licence revoked. Speeding up to block an overtake is a hangable offence in my book.

After toenails have been removed with a rusty spoon.

At 6.25 the camera car is heading into a blind bend on a narrow road like he has no consideration for what could be just round it.

My own little 4 clip compilation, all filmed today around Manchester (except last one near Doncaster).

While I admit these won't over excite (the usual wrong lane near miss, red light runner etc.), the more I see the clip starting around 0.48 secs, the more I think he was doing a rather crazy speed.

Now, I never take much notice of people passing me, even at 100mph+ but when this one went past I remember saying "wow". Not a lot on the road admittedly, though the surface looked a little damp, rather him than me.

The motorcyclist didn't have great control over the bike. He was over steering when turning on a few occasions and you can hear the bike riding the clutch because of poor clutch control when he pulls off.

But the Audi guy was driving ridiculously.

The Hyde junction roundabout has always been a hotbed of poor discipline, even before they updated it coming off the M67.

The run up the hill on the M60 to the M62/M66 split is also a fantastic place to spot dreadful driving.

In the second clip he was trying to get a bit of a jump on the van driver. I would have been looking to be more certain the van driver was committed to the middle lane before trying to get past him. It's best to be defensive and give yourself and others space rather than diving in like it's a rugby scrum.

I think you may be reading too much into it - he was just slowly making his way across to the outside lane, at around 15mph, and the van just cut in front without indicating.

I can't even see how the cyclist is supposed to get over to it, if it is even a cycle lane. She's getting annoyed because she has no driving skill or anticipation to simply pass so instead takes out her frustration on the cyclist.

[Byker28i]

Ah relooked - it's a turn right lane, not a cycle lane.

The thing with this thread is it annoys the st out of me, every video posted at least 75% of it is usually created by cam car and then they make the situation worse, complaining about poor driving by someone else whilst they've been sat in the middle lane for the last 9 years of their life at 65mph, or make no attempt to avoid anything ever.

Yeah, it seems to be mostly a UK phenomenon though.
