Typical self righteous middle aged Daily mail reading cyclist, what about learning the rules of the road at roundabouts before critiquing other road users!!

The problem is this guy just seems to find the relatively minor stuff, there are some clearly scary moments for a cyclist in that video but some of them are non events.

I find tts on phones annoying whether I am on my bike or in the car and I expect buses to be driven badly (along with taxis) it seems to mandatory for "professional" drives to be a bit st at it.

You give way to vehicles from the right the car was already half way round when he rode out in front of it.

Don't be daft, they both enter the roundabout at roughly the same time. It would have helped if the car 1) indicated and 2) actually went ROUND the roundabout.
