Cyclist rage

[CharlieCrocodile]

Bit different from the usual, this time it's cyclist on cyclist - http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=82c_1413910162

Hopefully it's not a repost.

Even without the incident, this video highlights the issue with cyclists mixing with regular traffic.
They're all over the place, and it's everyone else has to try and avoid them.

Nightmare.

I think the fact the agressor is riding a child's bike tells you all you need to know.

Absolutely. With no lane discipline at all it is inevitable that people will get cut up like the BMX did. Its like watching wacky races.

Ouch pretty grim, It was pretty obvious the child on the BMX was going to go round the coach initially so the guy that crashed should have been more defensive and given him space

Still Hindsight is easy

I'm so glad I don't live in such a hole where things like this happen.

Anyway camera guy should have some forward planning, guy on the BMX is a dick.

If only they had some kind of identifying numerical marking, like cars do.

Fixed for you.

That looks like it could have been nasty had the coach driver continued pulling out as it seemed to be doing before he got kicked off. Excellent kick by the BMX guy though

Something I've noticed everywhere and especially in this video; dicks on cycles never, ever look over their shoulder when passing parked vehicles. Even the ones with earplugs in or on the 'phone.......

Simple two-part solution:

1) Make cycle helmets mandatory.
2) All cycle helmets must have a clearly visible registration mark.

Maybe he hadn't had chance to shave his legs this morning so his aero is all out of kilter.

Something I've also noticed everywhere; dicks in cars never, ever look over their shoulder or in their mirrors when passing parked vehicles. Even the ones on the phone or texting......

REGULATE IT. Few lessons, a basic test and a registration of some sort. Would cut such a huge % of offences... save pedestrians getting bumped, a few cyclists lives and a couple of dangerous blood pressure spikes.

Unlike Boris I think it's beneficial to encourage more GOOD cyclists, not just simply more cyclists.
