Keltbray employ maniacs

[BentMikey]

I saw the conversation about them reporting it to roadsafe - does roadsafe ever go futher than the driver just getting an arsey letter though?

Would it not have been better to report the incident directly to the police?

Just had my recent red M3 BMW video report replied to, and they're going to send an NIP. I think Roadsafe are pretty good, they are primarily an educational unit, and I'm fine with that. A lot of cyclist camera incidents don't require more than education. Roadsafe also seem pretty decent about prosecuting the ones that should be prosecuted, but it is an imperfect world and Roadsafe don't always get what they want either.

The give way marks that populate every entrance, onto every roundabout, in the whole of the United Kingdom. They mean "stop if something is coming".

Technically maybe, but it was clear from his road positioning which way he was going. Tipper driver just didn't care. Tippers are notorious for this sort of driving - payment by load etc. etc., giving way costs money.

Sure, but about one in every three vehicles at that junction does the same thing, so I'm not sure it's Keltbray specific. Not sure I would have undertaken him approaching the zebra crossing either...

Its maybe too late at night for me, tiredness but I can't see the driver done much wrong.

Not a shocker video but it does show a lack of driving standards. IMO not indicating and deciding it's a good idea to overtake a bunch of cyclists at peak hour seconds from Parliament Square lights shows poor skill.

I dont know the junction but I still don't see much, IMO more people need to adopt defensive driving/cycling techniques, its not polite but lots of drivers don't indicate.

Just ordinary poor driving - lack of indication and a zero-gain overtake. Nothing else was going to get in front of him in the queue at the red light so it's hard to see why he needed to pass. But urban cyclists will see dash-and-plug driving time and time again on the roads.
