I have never ever driven that far up on a pavement. Trust me both wheels where at least 1.5 metres on the pavement.
Really? Stop the clip at about 01:42. now follow the line of the pavement down from the 'parked' car just beyond the lights - the rear wheels are not on the pavement!
It's not a silly question. It proves that this gentleman was driving in a dangerous manner. You obviously agree...
So now clipping the kerb is "driving in a dangerous manner? I don't agree that clipping the kerb is dangerous driving.
Did you look that up on the internet?
No, I learnt that in primary school!
It's funny that people often tend to say that when they are
loosing (?) an argument. Go on, set a poll. ask how many people agree with what you are saying. You are just trolling. Very enjoyable trolling, but you are just trolling none the less. You only ever come into commuting to try and berate me. Do you not like me? Have I offended you? Are you my personal web stalker? In fact that makes sense, you wrote the Bawbag Cyclist web site didn't you!
Be careful your paranoia is showing.
Oh I bow down at your feet. You must commute in much heavier traffic and so are soooo much more worthy!
Much heavier traffic - we came back from a local shopping mall in a taxi a few nights ago - 5kms in 55 minutes.

It's a 'penalty' for living in civilisation. Do you live in isolation? Have you accidentally bumped into someone when you have been shopping or in a queue or someone bump into you? Any near misses? In an ideal world, motorists would leave enough room for us, never open doors on us, etc but it is not an ideal world, is it? Learn to cope and deal with your surroundings.
Looking at the video again, the motorists allegedly 'toots' at poor Magnatom who is annoyed for some reason, does not complete the right turn, stops the bike in a dangerous position and screams at the driver. This is not rational behaviour, is it? There are plenty of cyclists who ride more miles than you do but why is it you who has so many 'incidents'? As I said before, you need either Prozac or anger management - maybe both!
