I'm not always a friend to mr. cyclist but...

That was fucking retarded. Not that I expected anything else from a cyclist.

 

[Mabs]

nice
point well made tbh

 

[old.user4556]

Liked it, need to watch the full thing.

Cyclists don't stick to bike lanes in central London. They go where they want to, run red lights, don't signal direction change, are unaware of their surroundings (sunglasses on, headphones in, head down), hide behind trucks then pounce out from nowhere & then complain that everyone else is an arsehole on the road

You're fucking retarded.

Just like car drivers then eh.

Can I just say, you're spot on there. When I was working in London, I was shocked at the red light running that cyclists do, one of them (an attractive, well dressed blonde girl) shouted "get out the fucking way" as well.

Was a bit of a head turner when I shouted "FUCK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!" like a mad highlander.

 

[Cerb]

like a mad highlander.

Don't know why but that almost made me do a spit take at work haha.

 

[Lamp]

Don't know what you call them, but one of these

came up on the inside when I was driving down Euston Rd today (one of the busiest roads in London). These type of bikes are so low. Unless you check your wing mirror when turning left, there's gonna be a nasty accident.

 

[Punishment]

Nice video, point well made

 

[Trem]

I liked that video/guy but I see your video and raise it with the following -

Over the bars into the truck, this dude needs to star in the next blockbuster
bike mayhem movie.

 

[GimmlyThe3rd]

I agree with Lamp, I lived and drived in London, cyclists are a fucking nightmare.

 

[Zenith.UK]

Nice point of riding into the back of a police car at the end.

So are people who drive cars.

 

[Shagrat]

yep you should try riding a bike through a town/city before giving us cyclists shit.

 

[-J-]

1. Cyclists in London are a breed apart.

2. Drivers in London don't pay attention.

3. There will always be someone who disagrees with 1 and 2.

4. There are three sides to every story, your side, their side and the TRUTH!

that's amazing. and true.

also, on the subject of riding a bike in Londinium, EVERYONE WHO DARES TO DO THAT SHOULD BE GIVEN A MEDAL. in fact, any car driver or ped who lacks the brain power to realize that the bikers should be applauded should have their license taken away, because they're clearly unfit to perform complex tasks like driving, or even walking around outside unassisted.

yeah that was cheeky but lol worthy.

Why the hell should you NOT check your wing mirror when turning anywhere on a busy street?!



motorists and cyclists will always say the other one is the crazy mofo, ive been doing both for quite a while and ive seen some crazy shit on the streets... and i live in a small town with great possibilities for any kind of traffic.

 

[Mey]

Made me lol!

 

[old.Tohtori]

Ok, the poitn about obstructions is a good one, fair enough and all that, but did the guy get a ticket for avoidng an obstruction?

Police cars can park whereever the f*ck they want really and construction is construction, but if you get ticketed for avoiding such a thing; yes, they are wrong.

Otherwise; funny way to make a point, what Job said and also "F*cking bikelanes? "

Those things are so dangerous, ive been sitting at lights then suddenly you see a head pop up at the same level as you

I ride a motorbike daily around Bangkok's busyist parts, and the city is far far worse than London. The traffic is much more congested, the level of skill is dangerious to none. The driving is crazy and you get use to people not caring or checking mirrors before they pull out etc.

So yes i'm qualified to call Cyclists wankers, especially the knobs that ride around in London.

Check this video out, bike accidents are around 4:50, thats the every day norm

You wouldn't know you don't leave your house!

Honestly seen too many cyclists come close / actually get knocked off their bikes.

Nobody gives a shit about eachother, even think of it on street level, everyone just walks past, head down or on the phone in their own world. I can imagine road traffic is very much the same.

 

[ST^]

Cyclists aren't trained to be on the road and it shows. I know there are bad drivers, but cyclists are fucking suicidal. I've had to do some neo matrix shit to dodge cyclists with a deathwish.

Many cyclists have a drivers license. I tend to use my feet instead now days and some x-walks are dangerous and here in sweden a driver need to stop and let pedestrians over. Last week at the busstop here a woman chatting on the cellphone while driving went in the wrong lane at about 70km/h nearly killed an older lady and myslelf she lost her license

Last time I cycled I was overtaking a van who decided it would be a good idea to turn right without looking or indicating. There was a fair bit of blood.

What happens in my case: I indicate well in advance and dumbfuck cyclists still try to slip up the inside.
