Youtube – cyclist knocked off bike…

Scary how bad some drivers are….

Wow. That woman made the first driver look skilled.

Bluddy hell. Good advert for using a video camera to record your commute!
That woman had no idea she had done anything wrong and didn’t even seem to accept it when shown the bike under her car.

😐

How the hell did she miss that an accident had just happened right in front of her? How far was she planning to drive with the bike underneath her car? The first driver was bad enough, but blimey…

That woman had no idea she had done anything wrong and didn’t even seem to accept it when shown the bike under her car.

that was the scarey thing – beign hit by two dozy twunts is bad enough but her trying to drive off with him and his bike under her car and then arguing about it took the biscuit.

Did the police ever attend – I couldn’t see anything on the comments?

‘O’ for orange 🙂

Oh dear, that woman really needs to stop driving.

The first driver almost (note the use of ALMOST) had an excuse as the van really was very in the way, but obviously he should have waited to check it was clear, but lests face it, we have all done something like that.
As for the dozy woman i hope none of us have just carried on driving over someone even tho it was obvious they were lying on the middle of the road.

Holy crap!!

“I didn’t see you…..where were you….”!!!!!!

There are blue-n-twos at 10:35 in the video, I guess that is them showing up.

The cyclist makes a bit of a meal of it though..

What planet are you on, guy gets knocked off his bike then run over by another driver and you reckon he’s making a meal of it! 🙄

The cyclist makes a bit of a meal of it though..

He’s got rubber all over his knee!

It says in the comments that he sent the video in HD and a full statement to the police, but it was just ‘going around in circles’.

Yeah, he should just MTFU after being knocked off and run over by two cars, one of which has utterly destroyed his bike!

Bloody hell, does she breakfast on Valium?

I like that it takes nearly ten minutes before anyone asks him if he is okay!
(even then it seems to be more “are you going to sue me?”)

does she breakfast on Valium?

Where do they serve this?

Calm down you lot, the bike looks fine…

His right knee was some colour that’s for sure.

If you watched to the end the rozzers showed up and then the edit stopped there.

Scary stuff.

Hats off to him for being on the ball and calling the police, when I was knocked off the shock and adrenalin affected my judgement and hid my injury, I let the guy leave with just giving me a tenner for a busted light. Foolish.

“I didn’t see you…..where were you….”!!!!!!

Somersaulting past your **kin bonnet wearing a hi-viz orange jacket – under/over a bike with flashing lights on in broad daylight.

Yeah, clearly his fault love 😯

Christ almighty that woman scares me. Totally, totally clueless.

If you watched to the end the rozzers showed up and then the edit stopped there.

Although the comments say:

I don’t know how I kept my cool, must have been in shock. I tried to? send this video to the police but I have been going round in circles. So far the police has not come back to me or taken any action.
.. I send the full HD? 1080 vid via registerd post to the traffic police.

Lucky escape

good god 😯

That has lead to a productive afternoon of watching loads of cycling videos!

that’s going to be a nightmare to sort out on insurance. Claim for a rear wheel from one driver and the rest from the other? blimey

a few months ago i saw a car that was pulling out of a junction – she was looking right (at oncoming traffic) and moving slowly forwards, about to boot it.. she hadn’t looked forwards and seen the woman pushing a pushchair she was running over. pushchair was caught under the front of the car and was mangled, luckily (partly due to me smacking her window to make the driver stop) there were no injuries

As ever, some of the YouTube comments are “golden”.

Poor bloke. Must have had a right shock.

Amazing that even on a clear cut “motorists at fault” video like this you get comments like:

“Serves him right for cycling in front of a? car”

“Every? car vs bicycle accident is because cyclists filter. If the cyclist was waiting his turn he would not have been hit. Cyclists fault.”

“WHERES YOUR INSURANCE??? Who pays the damage to the car, when he hits you, because you insisted on going forwards, and not braking??? Red lights? apply to you too, not only cars.”

“cyclist should stay? off the road”

“The f*g needs to stop whining like a little girl , pull his bike out from under the car and continue riding.”

“The rider is clearly a b**ch and trying to make a point about riding the cycle. One of those that put themselves in harms way to make a video.”

😯

‘O’ for orange

I liked ‘G’ for Groove

I liked this one –

actually just came on hear to watch a cyclist get run over cos as a road user I’ll admit I hate there species, but I ended up feeling sorry for the guy. OK the golf driver should pay more attention, But that women is so ignorant she comes across? senile, I mean really what with the BHS shopping bag? oh yeah, probably to put his **** remains in you DAFT DOCILE BITCH ! ! !

No comment, except there’s a lot of that out there.

Ride aware folks.

That one was my favourite too Ian. 😀

that is unreal.

Couldn’t help but look at a few of the other linked videos.
So looking forward to my ride home now 🙁

Je-zus!

Thats absolutely unbelievable. Whats more worrying is the number of videos linked at the end of the clip.

Thats not really filling me with confidence for my ride out of central london to the unlit coutry roads later. (and i am not joking- thats really worried me)

I quite liked this related video.
Good reason to wear a helmet, and in Edinburgh too. TJ will be so pleased:

I am astonished that anyone could be that blind! gotta love the Youtube comments. some people really have no idea.

fair play to the driver of the Golf for sticking around. Although I couldn’t tell what she was saying I get the impression she was trying to plead ignorance to the fact that she needs some driver (think cyclist) awareness training!

I’m off to buy a camera for my commute. That scares me. I have close shaves every day only a matter of time before I am hit again.

I did something similar a few years back, ended up rolling onto the boot of a Chrysler Crossfire 😳
(Driver was fine about it)

(Oh yeah, not too sure about having the cam on my bars after the OP clip!)
