BentMikey said:I suspect Mr Cellophane was being tongue-in-cheek, hence the winking sad face. For the hard of thinking, I didn't force the cyclist to do any undertaking. I didn't undertake, after all, and I left enough space that he could have passed to the offside of the left-turning car since my front didn't overlap with his rear. He didn't need to undertake, he didn't need to get a fright if he'd been looking, and he didn't need to ride without hands.
You can see further examples of observation from the both of us as we pass the parked car.

BentMikey said:Why not - it's shared space, and his actions on the public highway affect us all. It's all our business.

He may have taken exception to your pompous outburst and his resulting action could have been swift contact of his fist and your chin.
