I'm having nasty flashbacks now. Some of those situations are very familiar.

The white fuel truck on the roundabout is the scariest helmet cam video I have ever seen. Lots of these sorts of things I can say to myself "I would never have undertaken that bus" etc etc... But that one could well happen to the best rider in the world.

Seem to recall he was tracked down. Got off on legal technicality. Roundabout is at Homebase, Milngavie, north of Glasgow.

Edit .

Yes, insufficient evidence.

I commute by bike everyday but I don't think I would have the balls to cycle in London.

Scary flashbacks coming from watching the crashes.

I don't commute in a town on a bike (not sure I would after seeing this!) but I was sent flying from the roadbike a few years ago by an elderly gentleman's car at a country roundabout - a bit reminiscent of the tanker coming straight on but luckily without that much speed and the big scary F.O. wheels.

To solve this needs a complete culture change in this country both in terms of awareness and courtesy on both sides but also an emergence of some real experts in road junction layout. Junctions that work in cities safely for both cyclists and motorists. I won't hold my breath.

bollocks, missed first half. I'm sure due to the unique the way the BBC is funded it'll be on iPlayer but we need a +1 for BBC1...

people who ride to find bad driving will find it because they are looking for it. some might say they create their own situations!

I have the strangest desire to stay away from London. It would appear to be full of bellends.

It comes to something when the most sensible people on this programme are the taxi drivers!

If you go out looking for trouble, you'll find it. Some of those incidents could have been avoided simply by a bit of forward planning on behalf of the cyclist.

I mean look now, how many cyclists have gone up the inside of an indicating left turn lorry?!
