Overlooking the fact that the focus shouldn't be taking advantage of the box area to push in to a queue, is it really that surprising that they clearly weren't expecting the bike to be there in this situation?

Or is filtering like this fair enough?
Tom is an idiot. He wears a helmet cam because he keeps getting carved up but he's so busy being a self riteous prick that he doesn't realise he Keeps getting carved up because he lacks experience and awareness.

Well done Tom, you might just film your own death and then you can be the most correct man in the morgue.
Clearly the car is in the wrong, his exit was clear, why change lanes and stop on a box, whether he saw the bike is not important, his road craft is crap.

Had a look at their Facebook page, can see why they employ/employed the guy. Don't appear the brightest, as they don't seem to realise that the bloke wearing the company t-shirt links the incident to their company...

What's with the multiple revving from motorcyclists/moped riders when they have a near miss or a driver's manoeuvre annoys them? It features on loads of clips. The driver's unlikely to hear it. Is it just a frustration thing? Why don't they use their horn?
Because the horn on most motorcycles sounds like a duck with asthma.
Perhaps, but revving is no different.
Actually, yes, yes it is. It's an order of magnitude louder, even with a standard exhaust. It's the fastest and most effective way to announce
your presence to those who aren't paying attention. The horn is useless in comparison.
It's a fall back for st riders who place their safety in other people's hands and then get serially offended when subjected to the exact amount of close shaves you'd expect when you ride in close quarters or with higher risk and smaller margins for error.
Angry men, tiny cocks, loud exhausts. You can set your watch by it.
Oh dear! Did a nasty man on a motorbike make you jump while you were updating your Faceplant page?

Your response to the very simple premise that a revved engine is louder than a bike-horn, is that some people you don't know, and have never met,
are using it for a reason other than the obvious one, because you are psychic and have x-ray vision? Or did you just make them angry
by trying to inspect the size of their genitalia?

And the evidence you offer for this statement is that......Oh wait, you haven't offered any at all.
But that's ok. As long as you say so, then that must be correct. It's a shame you weren't around during the renaissance. Everyone else could
have just stayed in bed.

not horrific, but jumping a red while it was on red for at least 3 seconds, probably didn't see my car move due to it being black.

Whether the car is in the wrong isn't in question. My point is, filming stupidity doesn't make you immune to it. Get some awareness, not a video camera and accept that when you filter, you're going to have the odd close shave, even when you're on top of things. I can't abide these hammed up theatrical displays of disgust at everyday driving errors, for the benefit of the camera.

No. I'm sick of sitting behind idiots who put themselves in stupid positions, get offended when they're nearly ttted as a result and then sit there revving the tits off their bike, head shaking, finger wagging and just generally being a serial victim. If you have to alert someone to your presence using your engine revs, fine, use whatever tool you have at your disposal. But 9 times out of 10 the likelihood is you shouldn't have been there in the first place. Take responsibility for your own safety, don't leave it in other people's hands then make us all look like cocks when you decide to use your bike to shout at someone for making what are usually minor, predictable and avoidable errors.

That'll help with the GoPro audio when one is having it out with one's opponent on the road.

Surely all errors that people make are avoidable? confused

I have to say I'm utterly shocked and disgusted by his actions. I would never want to see such a thing happening on the streets of the UK.


Riding a bike without protective gloves, what was he thinking?

He drove back around and waited until the BMW driver had left before he spoke to the Discovery driver to avoid confrontation as BMW man was in a pretty angry state by the sound of it.

"I proved my point". Yeah and smashed up your own car and that of someone else, and with a bit of luck will be done for dangerous driving.

What a knobber.

At 13 /14 seconds the road markings are clear and it shows that the Disco had maintained lane discipline and that the BMW had cut across.
