No criticism, constructive or otherwise, driver was a plonker.

An observation though, having seen this happen lots of times- as far as I know, dealing with cyclists is not covered in the whole training and testing process for drivers, or if it is, that's a very recent thing which won't have affected many current drivers. It really needs to be. Rather more important than be able to reverse into a parking bay.
Driver education relies on having a tiny fraction of common sense and consideration though - normal people wouldn't get anywhere near the vulnerable cyclist to save 10 seconds on their journey... But not everyone is blessed with two brain cells to rub together.
The best thing is, he overtook me and then had to stop at a set of traffic lights just down the road. smile
That guy (driver) was an idiot and the guy trolling the comments for your vid is definitely a Pistonheads member.
I do believe the PH member is Lemming Train.

Not sure we've had this one before, it's a bit long but some of them certainly get the pulses racing - especially the last one with RR and bikes!
the last one you would think the RR was at fault, but it was a big story, and even though one of the bikers was paralyzed, he was innocent.

Sadly a lot of idiot bikers out there. Also a lot of dicks in cars are well. Instant response to being horned now is it to swear back or even start a fight. Complete tools

The comment which makes it obvious it's a PH'er is 'i am a powerfully built company director'

And the word-for-word Clarkson quotes about being too poor for a car. smile

Definitely a wind-up. (No, it's not me).

Wow! When he turned onto the carriageway and narrowly misses a car, crazy. Amazed the car still ran when he hit the lorry.

Wow. I've never really had a problem with Birdlip although I've never tried to stop at the pub!

That looks like it will cost a fair bit. Is that definitely happening?

The view is above the traffic, look at 2:55 and you can see the 350z goes through the camera.

I hope so. Traffic at peak periods is terrible.

Nice to see that they are keeping the dogging area.

Possibly the shortest marriage ever, the bride was in the process of being strapped into the harness then it looks like the groom just told the guy to stop.

Is there any follow up on injuries sustained?

I'm not part of the privacy invading dystopian nightmare that is Faceache, but I could still watch the video. Regardless, I 'found' another copy of the video here if you want to download it.

Thanks, oddly the FB link didn't work for me yesterday, I tried again just now and it did work!
