Most experienced and level headed drivers know the roads are not just for cars. What you angry dudes need to know is even if you think you are in the right: for example doing 60mph round a blind bend; if you hit a walker, cyclist or horse you will be prosecuted for dangerous/careless driving and any resulting prosecution will seriously mess up the rest of your life (never mind the guilt which WILL set in once you mature and become less ignorant).
This is a great video!! The same thing happened to me, but i was driving. A guy on a motorbike about 2 cars behind be came out, sort of like you did, but at 30kph over the speed limit. I indicated, and luckily i just saw him out the corner of my eye but i sure gave him a fright! Served him right too going that fast
Why so many dislikes? This could help someone else from making the same mistake. I commend you for admiring your fault. Most people wouldn't dare of doing such a thing, considering that many have been condition into being "perfect".
why should cyclist pay to be on the road??? im not one but they have two wheels and no engine??? car capable off at least 60 mph bike what 10 average???
while u r doing all this dangerous overtaking what would happen if some poor overtaxed car driver needed to get outof his car for a fag or wee dram from his hip flask on route to pub. You would damage his car daws. CYCLIST SHOULD PAY TAX AND INSURANCE
@kentcyclist What rule of the Highway Code is breeched here? You simply can't filter between cars in a car and you can't be banned for impossible manouveres.
Overtaking a car that is slowing in traffic and or changing lane is perfexctly legal - infact that is exactly what this car infront of the cyclist is doing.
@kentcyclist That's laughable kentcyclist. There is no such offence as 'dangerous riding'. Even if there were he is not riding dangerously. He is riding exactly as he has to to keep up with traffic and progress along this conjested road. He is not using the road differently to drivers around him and is not causing an obstruction therfeore he is totally and completely within the rules of the Highway Code. He is filtering safely and the car he almost glances is at fault not him.
why do cyclist insist on riding in the middle of lanes, every video i see of a cyclist getting into a conflict is because they are in the middle of the lane when there is 4feet of space to the side of them that they can safely ride without blocking motorist. Kind of inconsiderate isn't it?
@redkingrd Simply because if you position yourself in the middle of the lane you are far far less likely to be missed in the visual check of a motorist. As a driver when you look down a road you look to the middle of the lane and filter out objects to the side. You must have noticed this yourself, have you never missed seeing a cylist stuck against the gutter coming towards you at a junction? It's 110% a safety issue and nothing whatsoever to do with riding inconsiderately.
My bike has been in the shed, unused, for over two years now, Glasow's getting way too dangerous to cycle so I do empathise with you; Anniesland Juncion in particular, bikes are car fodder.
However considering culpability and causality, had you not entered the box junction @ 0.52 without an exit lane being free none of what followed would have occurred. (Rule #174 Higway code)
mmm typical which part of NOT stopping on a box junction did you not understand? If there are three lanes of traffic why do YOU think you can make four ??
@Steeshuk Derp, shows someone doesn't know why people have to pay for their vehicles to be on the road, might be due to the fact it has an engine pumping out gasses...
@magnatom I'd be interested to know why you don't think we should? I'm not saying tax as they would be under the threshold anyway but insurance and some kind of mot/safety test? How about some kind of training? You need all those things to ride a moped but as a cyclist we need none of them - and we can go faster. I think the time will come shortly where numberplates will be on us if some keep riding like morons. Look at some of the vids on here for proof.
@magnatom because only road tax is calculated based on emissions. were a person to cycle into the side of my car (let's assume for argument's sake it was 100% their fault) and damage it, unless i can find them and sue for damages, i would have to either pay for it myself or claim on my insurance and increase my premiums.
were they to cycle into a pedestrian and seriously injure or even kill them (yes of course it is possible) then the consequences go far beyond one's insurance excess.
@magnatom cyclist should be insured for personal injury and small claims like to repair dents to cars, Because if a cyclist is at fault and damages a vehicle or causes injury's to a pedestrian as a lot of them like to jump red lights, Why should the driver have to pay? or that person miss out on wages if it wasn't there fault?
@rainbowinthedark73 Cyclists already have lots of areas of their own in towns and cities, they're called 'Cycle Lanes' . Where I live we have people riding two-a-breast fairly often anyway taking up a whole lane and slowing down the traffic and you lot wonder why you get grief. You want to use the road as you like but when it comes to paying your way you're not interested.
And as for your pathetic attempt at sarcasm at the end of your comment, well, it's pathetic!
@samyan1977 What's pathetic is your confused idea and whinging that you pay for the road. There is NO road tax fool. WE ALL pay for the roads through council and income tax plus most of us drive.
We have very few cycles lanes here, two-a-breast is perfectly legal.
Seems you dont really know what your'e on about eh.
Do some research greedy road 'owner' and come back with something valid rather than your sore arsed i've got to pay crap lol.
@rainbowinthedark73 You're a complete moron! You say "most of us drive" presumably this a reference to you paying road tax? The same road tax you say doesn't exist, dick head.
You want to get your facts straight, I didn't say it was illegal. Two-a-breast may be legal but it's not very considerate to other road users so I don't do it when I go cycling with my mates. You have a bad attitude and a chip on your shoulder thinking the world is against you.
@MrVultcher ha ha ha how would you fit a number plate onto a bike. And what damage can a cycle do that would warrent insurance? It wil be pedestrains who can't cross a road without a number plate and insurance after that will it? They are also road users and actually cause more accidents than cyclists. ie get themselves killed crossing the road.
I do. £215 a year for the car which rarely gets used because my 6 mile commute is quicker, healthier, cheaper, less congesting, lest polluting, quieter, more sociable and less stressful. Argue against that?
@conkeroonee You don't understand that there is no road tax, do you? Even though you don't pay one. Cyclists pay for the road the same way that people who take the bus do. Even people who stay at home pay for the roads. Registration and insurance fees do not pay for roads or their maintenance. Taxes do, which everyone pays.
I agree. They slow up traffic and get in way. Then their dumb riding makes them get knoced off and tax payers have to foot bill for ambulance. Most are dole scroungers. They should pay tax insurance and for thei stupid cycle trains. Blloomin pansies. I agree with jeremy clarkeson
@conkeroonee My point? If £20 gives you the right to have an opinion on the road then in comparison I must own the road?. Kindly move your spluttering little miserybox outta the way of my cycle.
@UKFeen It's pretty clearly a warning about overtaking in stop-start traffic. You need to anticipate the unexpected lane change of this type when you have the ability to filter between cars.
hahahaha. i love how everybody thinks your on a motorbike. tbh honest. he didnt signal till you were nearly overtaking him. i dont know how cycling works though.
@midfielderlegend ..He's on a motorcycle. Filtering is perfectly legal here and is one of the primary advantages of a motorcycle. If he were to stay in the queue and act like a car he would also be contributing to the traffic.
@ReedtheLines I agree - imagine if every motorcycle/scooter in town (regardless of where in the world you live) was to line up nose to tail with appropriate gaps bdetween each other...the cars would never move! And then of course if we all took up a dedicated parking space (as we are generally entitled to do through payment or registration for bikes in most countries) instead of doing what so many of us do and park two or sometimnes 3 bikes into a single car park space.
wow, nice to see people not change lanes without checking. I ride, my motorcycle, in the tire lines of other vehicles here in the states, and its on the side where the traffic is more threatening or frequent. i do that because every time im behind someone in my 4 wheeled auto, i see their dumb head in their misaligned side mirrors. people here in the states love their blind spots.
A lot of people blame cyclists because they "don't belong on the road". I think they should stay off the road if they are going to be absolute morons. In fact, I've seen really good cyclists on the road and bad ones. I had one decide to cross two lanes without looking, and did a nice slide across my hood. 3 days later, I had another one almost slide under my tires when he cut me off without looking at all. He was unhurt because I saw him. PAY ATTENTION CYCLISTS.
what??? a cyclist did something wrong????? repeat after me....filtering is legal....filtering is legal....filtering is legal..........remeber to keep repeating this during your six month stay in hospital...which is coming if you keep riding as selfishly as you do
@anyone4t this is probably the only video he's ever posted where he's admitted being in the wrong, even though he is in the wrong in most of his vids...
@tysonfor1 see thats the thing, you wouldnt knock the next biker you see off the road unless you are completely retarded and wanna go to prison, and i understand motorcyclists are a pretty big threat to themselves since cars are like 5x more lethal but seriously man, chill.
@tjbayliss You're right it's not rocket science. It's really easy, almost free, & usually quicker than driving in towns. I save myself a couple of grand a year, & about two hours a week not stuck in traffic. I can park pretty much anywhere for free. Driving is hard.
wow good to see you in a calm mood for once, must of "got some" that morning eh. and can i surgest lowering the hight of your bike light to a more dipped position from the "full beam" position it is in now as it could dassle on coming cars and they could hit you
Two flashes doesn't count as an indication. the driver started his manover at the same time as signaling. Mirror, signal, mirror, mirror, manover, mirror. Lucky you were awake chap. I'd say that was a near miss.
@sheepborg it is a smart car one of them "environmentally friendly" cars that they tried to make look like a sports car lol not sure if it's a smart fortwo or not
@parnol and how much money do you spend on running that car. filling it with fuel. maintanence. M.O.T insurance etc? who out of you and him could run a race and not be panting for air at the end of it after a few months in/on your prefered vehicle?
Let me guess you are one of those bicycle assholes that wears your fruity little outfits and your annoying hand signals and expects all traffic to move out of your way. Too bad he didn't run you over, fucking pikey.
Let me guess you are one of those bicycle assholes that wears your fruity little outfits and your annoying hand signals and expects all traffic to move out of your way. Too bad he didn't run you over, fucking pikey.
@ripousse Because he was paying attention to the driver in the car, he realized the driver was distracted which meant taking a position more easily seen to him.
you cyclists risk your lives everytime you go out on the roads these days thats why my bikes gathering dust in my bedroom, too many nutters on the roads for my liking. take care out there.
Part of me agrees with what your saying. I'm scared for the lives of my children. Gone are the days that kids can clear off on a day long bike ride into the distance like I used to.....
BUT, another part of me says that we should ALL get out more & more and try to claim back some respect back on those roads. If there's more bike riders, then EVERYONE else will have to change the way they ride/drive.
@2ADMYRE bitta nit picking thereman. He was stopped in the yellow box for like a second, besides on a bike its not all bad cos if the traffic where to stop (so you "cant" get out of the box) then you can just nip between cars on a bike.
Also if that car did hit the rider, then by law it would be the cars fault for pulling out on him, but in the interest of not falling off your bike then he shoulda been further out, as he knows.
... where are you from? In the UK you can _fail_ your motorbike exam if you *don't* filter between traffic (assuming it's safe to do so).
There's nothing wrong with it at all. I hear it's illegal in some countries though, but then... they drive on the right. You can't pick and choose which countries' laws to obey ;-)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
what the hell is a cyclist doing in the middle of the road. sticking to the left side is what they should be doing. being in the middle is just asking for trouble.
I seem to remember that you have to indicate for 3 seconds before it' can be regarded as a signal. Going along with janm399, you still have to be more than in the right. You do well to see this as a learning oportunity as should we all.
I wouldn't say that was your fault, either. Still, being right is not much of a consolation when you end up getting hurt. So, if you pulled out a bit earlier, you may have avoided the potentially dangerous situation.
He did atleast indicate before he moved which was cool. I've gone to do this a few times and then realised they're pulling out, touble is here they dont often indicate which is a nightmare...
Most experienced and level headed drivers know the roads are not just for cars. What you angry dudes need to know is even if you think you are in the right: for example doing 60mph round a blind bend; if you hit a walker, cyclist or horse you will be prosecuted for dangerous/careless driving and any resulting prosecution will seriously mess up the rest of your life (never mind the guilt which WILL set in once you mature and become less ignorant).

Riding a push bike is hardly rocket science
tjbayliss 2 months ago 20
@tjbayliss You're right it's not rocket science. It's really easy, almost free, & usually quicker than driving in towns. I save myself a couple of grand a year, & about two hours a week not stuck in traffic. I can park pretty much anywhere for free. Driving is hard.

Two flashes doesn't count as an indication. the driver started his manover at the same time as signaling. Mirror, signal, mirror, mirror, manover, mirror. Lucky you were awake chap. I'd say that was a near miss.

@Trainbuff2008
Part of me agrees with what your saying. I'm scared for the lives of my children. Gone are the days that kids can clear off on a day long bike ride into the distance like I used to.....
BUT, another part of me says that we should ALL get out more & more and try to claim back some respect back on those roads. If there's more bike riders, then EVERYONE else will have to change the way they ride/drive.

@2ADMYRE as almost all cars do... doesnt make it wrong but a bicycle hardly obstructs the junction like a bus does
mr420B 1 year ago
@2ADMYRE bitta nit picking thereman. He was stopped in the yellow box for like a second, besides on a bike its not all bad cos if the traffic where to stop (so you "cant" get out of the box) then you can just nip between cars on a bike.
Also if that car did hit the rider, then by law it would be the cars fault for pulling out on him, but in the interest of not falling off your bike then he shoulda been further out, as he knows.

BeeRich33 3 years ago
... where are you from? In the UK you can _fail_ your motorbike exam if you *don't* filter between traffic (assuming it's safe to do so).
There's nothing wrong with it at all. I hear it's illegal in some countries though, but then... they drive on the right. You can't pick and choose which countries' laws to obey ;-)
EdinburghFixed 3 years ago
Wrong, you cannot fail for not filtering. It is only taught in london and big cities and is not part of the test.

what the hell is a cyclist doing in the middle of the road. sticking to the left side is what they should be doing. being in the middle is just asking for trouble.
htrjf 3 years ago
Bzzzz. Wrong! :D
This is pretty much how you're meant to ride, apart from maybe being even further out to improve visibility to cars you're passing.
It's in the government's manual, you know :)
EdinburghFixed 3 years ago 16
I seem to remember that you have to indicate for 3 seconds before it' can be regarded as a signal. Going along with janm399, you still have to be more than in the right. You do well to see this as a learning oportunity as should we all.
Dashdecent 3 years ago
old comment I know but,
I don't think it says anywhere you have to signal for 3 seconds for it to count.
thomase1 2 years ago 2
I wouldn't say that was your fault, either. Still, being right is not much of a consolation when you end up getting hurt. So, if you pulled out a bit earlier, you may have avoided the potentially dangerous situation.
janm399 3 years ago
I wouldn't say that's your fault. He should of checked before pulling out. Maybe being further out would of been better, but not your mistake really.
thomase1 3 years ago
He did atleast indicate before he moved which was cool. I've gone to do this a few times and then realised they're pulling out, touble is here they dont often indicate which is a nightmare...
..leads to me sticking in the queue for safety.
