Even for militant London cyclists, that seems a bit extreme.

My thoughts,

That's not a road rage indecent per-se, I'd bet they knew each other before the polo decided to drive off like that and crash into another car. Personal or Gang related perhaps? He stops alongside the car and looks at the driver before the car moves.

In defence of the cyclist (interest choice of classification, yeah he's on a bike, but I'd say 'knife wielding nutter') whilst he had a terrifying knife, it's not as dangerous as having a tonne of steel thrown at you.

That isn't a cyclist - that is a (violent) man on a bike...

Do not tar me with that brush.

Golly, he appears to be a very very angry young man.

Some of the comments on that linked page are shocking.

They may have been road raging each other before the filming started...

Only 'shocking' if you're new to the Internet.

<p class="standfirst">Terrifying footage has emerged of a furious cyclist pulling a knife on a driver after almost being knocked off his bike.</p>

He was knocked from his bike by the car. Not almost.

Seamus Allison in the comments gets my nod of approval.

He was hit be the car and jumped off the bike, far as I can tell.

I'd agree that it doesn't look like road rage.  The cyclist stopped alongside the car before it started moving, no?  It looks to me as though he was looking for the driver.

What sort of pillock tries to smash a window with a knife?

Wrong tyres for a knife fight.

Wrong tool for the job, my EDC features an emergency glass breaker. It would have done the job with one well aimed strike.

Mark you it doesn't have the same zombie apocalypse cache, meh horses for courses.

Sadly I read some of the comments - what’s staggering is that some people have linked those comments to their real life Facebook profiles.
