This happened yesterday near where I work: http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/watch-bristol-cyclist-throw-punches-273649#comments-section Sorry, embedding doesn't seem to work. The car in front masks a lot of it. What do you all think?. The street the car emerged from is a slope...

Can't believe he's only 52! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-40718677 The statement he made in his own defence was hardly the best either.

1955 BFI Film about cycling. Very enjoyable.

Theres a really negative anti cyclist rant in a letter to the editor of our local rag. The letter written by a certain Karl James Langford who claims to be a "Liberal Party Parliamentary Spokesman" contains some very doubtfull statements and out an out inaccuracies . He claims foul mouthed...

An 8 year old boy has been knocked down by & seriously injured on the A650 Bradford Rd near Capitol Park Tingley Common, close to Morley, Leeds, Police are appealing for witnesses, apparently he was crossing the dual carriage way on the pedestrian crossing, when he was struck by an Hyundai car...

fortunately it wasnt me, but it was bad enough that the police had cordoned off part of upper street in Angel Islington. I swung around to have a look and i saw an MTB crushed under the wheels of a HGV on the left side (blind side) Not too sure what happened exactly but I asked the copper if...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-40248724 Jurors were told the defendant had told officers he had been passing when a cyclist had been hit by a car, and that he left the scene as he felt there was "nothing he could do". On his arrest, he said he had heard a "cry or scream" and...

I normally have the Cyclist Down forum hidden because I find it depressing, but a friend of mine is 'down' and has asked me for advice so I thought that I would go and take a look at the forum. The thing is, I can't see how to unhide it! Perhaps I am particularly stupid today (:whistle:) but I...

http://road.cc/content/news/224079-cyclist-gets-own-back-caravan-towing-driver-who-almost-knocked-him-his-bike-link I think this is rather good, but if the driver wasn't told of his poor & dangerous driving, somewhat pointless. At least if you open the back door of a car to tell the driver to...

This may have been posted but it needs all the publicity it can get, someone in red car throws bottle at cyclist.

Close to home this one:sad: http://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/cyclist-killed-after-collision-car-13082473

http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/watch-moment-nearly-hits-cyclist-58155 Sorry, BP doesn't like embedding. I noted a few points about this: Cyclist is already on roundabout, with Hi Viz and visible rear light. Can't see front light. Driver appears to be going a bit quick -...

He pulled out as the lorry was passing so smacked straight into the side and then went flying. 71 years old and by the looks of things was very lucky with just a knock to the head and hand injury, I just kept him talking whilst waiting for help and he seemed very with it so hopefully his head...

Story from the Lincolnshire echo (with CCTV video attached). http://www.lincolnshirelive.co.uk/graphic-video-of-mum-to-be-ramming-cyclist-into-tree/story-30326928-detail/story.html Utterly shocking and 100% deliberate. Certainly deserves the 3 year sentence. Seems she was on the phone (but...

Robert Faherty (63) driving without headlights when Grainne Duncan’s bike hit car A man whose careless driving left a cyclist without the ability to speak, walk or hear has been given a suspended sentence of nine months’ imprisonment. Robert Faherty (63) was driving without headlights when...

I feer I may be being kind of a snob and disassociate myself from said people. Let me elaborate. When I say I cycle I go out on my bike abide by the rules and laws of the road and etc etc. weather I am out on a 5km Hamer down, 100km sportive or a commute. The "person on a bike" I refer to...

Anyone struck a cyclist while driving? I have. Not a pleasant experience for anyone. About 10 years ago, I was driving through a university campus late at night, at about 20mph. A cyclist was ahead of me at about 10mph and I went to overtake. No other traffic, no turnings, junctions, or dropped...

Its driving me nuts. Is there an international rule we are following? We drive on the left, so we pass on the left surely? About half of the cyclists I see coming toward me on my 12mile commute want to force themselves down my left hand side, which to me - as a car driver - means we are passing...

Do you think this Manchester Cyclist is being overly assertive? (Background "Sporting Moments" by Mike Sweeney)

All very polite but I think the policeman didn't really have a clue... Any thoughts? http://www.cyclingweekly.com/videos/watch/watch-cyclist-stopped-police-officer-disagreement-road-positioning?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=Social

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4402718/Policeman-pulls-cyclist-flashing-blue-lights.html I don't know it it's been posted before. Obviously plod hadn't heard of cyclists riding in a primary position to stop idiots like himself from attempting a dangerous overtake.

Hit-and-run. On the phone. "On an empty road in north London a guy in a car on a mobile phone pulled out from the side of the road without indicating. I swerved that. But a millisecond later he u-turned into me and wiped me out."

Clearly something wrong with Nissan driverless car trials. They should be taken off the road until they sort this out.
