Yes, that degree of selflessness is a very rare sight on our roads

Van driver was 99% a doofus, it's being generous to give him credit for his 1% nondoofusnessocity.

Could be slightly missing the point here where some people are more worried about scratching their vehicles instead of anything else.
To be honest a lot of you would probably be the same about your (loved) bikes.

It's got nothing to do with how the cyclist is riding or his position and everything to do with the fact that both drivers ignored more than one clear sign and the second driver followed the first driver overtaking without checking he has a clear line of sight and the way is clear... Just like what happened here with me...

to be fair, the car in front would have obscured his view of the cones... but that doesn't stop him from being a nobber.
Yeah, what a farking hero.
Exactly my point, he overtook without a clear line of sight and he should have made sure there wasn't an obstruction before overtaking (like the guy in my video who nearly hit the bollard... the car in front obscured it). It's basic driving skills, it doesn't matter which position the cyclist was in, you don't blindly follow another car when overtaking.

You do actually miss my point like the rest.I've known some who don't even bother.(As I have already tried to point out but have obviously got nowhere).So please give me a break.
You must know though that there are plenty who drive like this.

And so inured are we to sloppy, lazy and inattentive driving we're supposed to grant credit to an idiot who hits cones instead of living flesh.

Why are you riding so far towards the edge of the road? Those double yellows aren't a cycle lane.

This constant sniping is something up with which I shall not put, goodbye and good riddance and I hope you go into a room and forget why you went in there, and that's swearing.
