2 pull outs in the space of 5 minutes

The second "incident" happens all the time to car drivers, never mind cyclists.

IMO, these "incidents" were not worth the effort it took to upload and post them. The drivers did pull out on you, but since we cant do much if anything about the 3rd party, lets discuss what you could do to make such occurances less frightening for you. In the video, you could see what was happening up ahead from some distance and could have slowed more gradually rather than tonking it within a few yards then slamming brakes on, also for your own piece of mind it could be worth taking a more outward possition and covering your brakes early when passing adjoining roads, just incase.

The 3rd video, if you were braking hard in that video, then your brakes must be absolutely shite, even in the wet!


This is said with the benefit of hindsight, on the road things can be different, but based on the video's these look like non-incidents to me.

If they weren't worth uploading, then they certainly weren't worth your comments.
I never said the incidents were frightening, and the 3rd one wasn't my video.

But thanks.
