On my regular bike commute, this driver decided to pass (too close) and then immediately stop in front of me so that he could turn left. NJ law expects drivers to treat bicycles as vehicles and pass safely.

  • Ok this is kinda like the situation i had yesterday this guy cuts me off so flipped him off and so starts yelling with the windows down i kept floorin it he trys to catch up but i tricked him i went left so he made a right cause he tried turning around going after me but by the time he got around i was gone lol

  • That pass angers me just watching this. Just yesterday I had a too-close pass on a 4-LANE ROAD (2 per side) and the left lane going my direction was EMPTY! Then they changed lanes *after* passing me! ?????!!!!

  • Looks like you should of been over more, more towards the center of the lane to prevent people from doing that. I do it all the time..keeps dangerous passing to a minimum.

  • Drivers have both the moral and legal DUTY to pass slower vehicles with due care and in a safe manner. Ride in the center of the lane if it is too narrow to share side by side with a motorist. On blind curves, hills and when there is oncoming traffic, move even more to the left to discourage a bad decision by a poor decision maker that is operating a motor vehicle.

  • Would be ironic if said driver wrote his car off (irrepairable damage) and had to use a bike.
