05:40:27: The title given to the video says what was very likely the case, after the overtake at 11 seconds the pinch point overtake took place. Causality is admitted in the video title. You reaped what you sowed
For clarity your overtake at 11 seconds was on a speed hump which is a traffic calming road feature. Doesn't seem like the smartest thing to do at any time let alone when there are so many stationary vehicles on the side of the road of a residential street. Pot holes/poor surface conditions like to appear on sides of and around speed humps, I'm sure you had a plan in case It was such as you were going so quick so close to that car.
Sure, with the demonstrated cycling style in this video I would conclude that you experience a lot of incidents and possibly, but not hopefully, accidents. Consideration and sense on the roads is not one sided.
Around the 42 seconds mark you can clearly see the driver over-taking through a pinch-point, which also happens to be on a sharp bend.. driver school, anyone? The road was clearly marked and he SHOULD have known the risk but still bolted past the cyclist, almost killing them. That actually happened not so long back, similar situation with a driver thinking they could box the cyclist in.
Here's an idea: Next time you pull out use a) your indicators, b) your mirrors and c) your fucking brain..
Just as well the car slowing down at 11 seconds wasn't doing so due to a blocking hazard or someone crossing the road. Your whizzing past them like that was a pure gamble.
Wow that's a bit strong, we all get impatient and make mistakes nightmare, not defending the driver, well in the wrong but but you don't know who's driving, could be someone with a disability, it could be someone who's rushing to his mothers dying bedside.
You sound like a right bitter, anger filled person, are you a bike nazi? It's people with that attitude our troops are fighting abroad to keep the peace, spew your hatred somewhere else.
You are nuts
