He cuts across spaces in the parking lot, comes out from behind a car and appears out of nowhere and is surprised he isn't seen? As for the part at the intersection, his camera didn't show the traffic lights so you don't know who was at fault. Did the car run the light or did the bike? You can't tell. And if the pickup "ran Ray right off the road", how come he never actually leaves the road in the tape? The tape makes Ray look worse than any of the car drivers.

This cyclist is a joke. 2nd clip shows that he was the cause of all those incidents. Cutting through parking lots at high speeds. If a car reverses out then stop and wait for him like other motorists. Follow the proper paths laid out for everyone and cars wont hit you!

@dbuzman je is on a bike people dont look for bikes or just people i walk everywhere and even with the little man light on i have to dodge cars the point of the video is watch out for others not just cars

I would gladly Bike to work everday, but the roads are a dangerous place for a cyclist. Honestly, Id rather come home everyday to my two kids than risk it on a bike.

DONT THINK YOUR HELMET AND CAMERA WILL HELP IF YOURE DEAD

As a car driver married to a cyclist, I'm sympathetic to the plight of this cyclist. If drivers had the chance to actually ride a bike on today's roads, they might be a little more sympathetic.

Re comments from a year ago saying that when cycling through a carpark the cyclist should WAIT for the car driver to reverse that is beyond laughable! The car shouldn't reverse at all if there is ANYTHING coming - car, cyclist or pedestrian - nor turn into a junction right of way or not IF IT ISN'T SAFE

@TachyonXC Hi! I have been verbally abused by road ragers for over an year! I am happy to have seen that I am not the only person to have to experience the attrocity of these road ragers. And that there are other people like you who are fed up with it! Now we can fight back, "Give us freedom or give us death!" Where can I by that helmet camera from friend?

Does he film himself going through red lights, riding on the sidewalk etc ?

If cyclists want the same rights as car drivers they should have a licence plate, pass a proficiency test, be insured and pay road tax like the rest of us

My dad is a cyclist and was 1 block away from home when a car comes out of the post office and hits him. it was quite sad as the driver didn't get a ticket of any kind when it was obviously failure to yield. His helmet totally cracked but thank goodness he was alright. Try being a cyclist in the country its ridiculous all the F-350 and their huge trucks try to run you fucking over.

@dbuzman look closer at the video, when he turns around to look back at the car, you see the light is green for him and not the red car
