What? Clearly all the accidents are setup, I very much doubt there was any damage to either of the cars, or they were hired/lent props.

He's clear got a point that it would be impossible to always stay on the cycle lane and I respect the commitment to throwing himself of the bike.

I thought the cop that gave him a ticket was more of a bellend in showing no discretion and found the piece amusing in the fact that they have created these lanes as if it was a knee jerk reaction to pressure placed upon them probably from cyclists but in actual fact it does not benefit the cyclist as they are ill thought out and are shown no respect by cars/trucks etc.

If you look on the right you will see another video discussing the problems with the system in New York.

By the way the cab and the cop cars are parked illegally for your info, and if you have been to New York a cabby wont be too bothered by a little dent they have ruddey great bull bars on the front of the cabs or they did when I went and are not what I would concours edition in terms of there appearence.
