Yeah, the Peugeuot came from a single lane to a dual carriageway and was drifting to the left lane, which he should have had a clear path do as no vehicle is allowed to undertake him. Meanwhile motorcyclist undertakes him while using a lane for left turn only, and then he has the nerve to honk his horn at the Peugeot. Poor judgement from the Motorcyclist and he deserved all he got.
There are pro's and con's here for both rider and driver, in my eye's the only thing the biker did wrong was kick the car BUT understandable due to the circumstances ..Everyone thinks its equal for cars and bikes, are they insane? Bikes and bikers are more vulnerable by far, what the car driver did on the roundabout was not use lane discipline, OK, not great but all the rider did was ALERT him that he was there, OK the finger was excessive but what the car driver does next is near attempted murder with a motor vehicle, END OF, if he'd knocked him off, it could have been anything from a sore leg to murder , trust me I know!, the kick of the car maybe a little OTT but they seemed to have it in for him regardless, I'm local and i would urge the rider to give the video to the law, I'm now aware of the tubby driver and his fwend and will find him in good time!. Live camera feed is a great thing ! .
You were in the wrong lane, you accelerated to put yourself into an unsafe position, you then made a lunge towards him then switched lanes right behind him, then you beep your horn at him as if he's in the wrong and then you kick his car? I agree with the driver, who do you think you are? You need to retake your test mate.
Dangerously stupid start of undertake on the exit of the roundabout. (I red the turn with enough time to of backed off) Motorcycle rider should of backed off when cut off. Simple rule DON'T UNDERTAKE drivers are not looking for it. A horn blast or two to wake him up is fine but kicking a car is aggressive and was hardly likely to get him a thank you card. Although i question weather enough time elapsed between the kick and the doors opening to say they hadn't already decided to give him a talking to.
Thanks for reminding me that suicidal bikers are out there.
So, the biker used several bus lanes, last I knew motorbikes aren't buses, cut across some chevrons, you have to stay outside them, went straight on from a left turn only lane on the iskand and then tried to undertake the Peugeot on exit of the island? Then after all that kicks the car, although the Peugeot driver should maybe have given more room at the end but on the other hand it look as if the biker was just about to pull in front of him to get round the cars waiting at the lights. So all in all the biker is mainly at fault here but the Peugeot driver shouldn't have attacked the him. But what did he expect?
@Donny (1st comment on here) if you read the highway code the left hand lane enables you to turn left or go straight on unless specifically signed otherwise (for example if on the ground it says left turn only). The more you know!
Not sure I've interpreted this correctly, the biker approaches the roundabout in the wrong lane (land turn only) but goes straight on, the Peugeot driver is in the correct lane on entry to the roundabout and in the correct lane on exit.
He gets two horn beeps for doing nothing wrong, then to add insult it injury the biker gives him the finger. Driver sees a little red mist as he's done nothing wrong (at this stage) and overtakes the bike a little too close essentially giving him the finger in return.
Looks like this is the end of the exchange until the disgruntled inexperienced rider kicks the chaps car... What on earth did he expect?
The biker caused this by riding badly, tooting ignorant to his own error, gave the driver the bird and then kicked his car, then comes on here to complain.
