Great ending. But inkinda felt sorry for the driver. Cyclist made a lot of effort to follow.

What lesson was learned? Either takenup primary on the road, or ezpact a car to try and squeeze past.

Is there anything at all that the cyclist could have done that you wouldn't criticise?

Yes he could go get anger management lesson's this all started because he wanted it to, after an innocuous pass he decided he wanted confrontation, even after the driver had tried to park up & found he was still being chased.

He didn't see the twat fall.

You sure, I doubt he rode away without looking back over his shoulder

Yeah right, you expect the cyclist to return and comfort a furious driver who has already assaulted him, made threats to kill him and was chasing him down to steal his camera? (Assuming he'd been aware of the fall.)

GC
Yes, why not, he's clearly a middle aged man who took quite a fall, the bigger man would have, nothing that happened here apart from the fall wasn't inevitable, the cyclist went looking for trouble & he found it

I ride down sidesteets quite a bit to avoid main roads and pull in as soon as I can (and try to stay aware of any vehicle approaching from behind) to avoid any such incidents as these.You just know people are going to attempt silly dangerous passes.

Hope the last two posters don't have children, teaching them to be quiet if they're bullied won't help them in the long run.

I don't think it's the cyclist that needs anger management lessons.

So you think it's normal to chase a car down 3 streets to confront the driver that really didn't do anything that bad, okay it could have been better, but from both camera angles it really wasn't that dangerous.

He didn't chase him down, he caught up with him on the same journey, which underlines how stupid and pointless the dangerous overtake was.

[QUOTE 3829474, member: 9609"]I think that is a really big mistake - he may have now instilled in this already volatile idiot, an overwhelming rage and hatred towards all cyclists. The police need to read this bloke the riot act. He needs to know that if he comes any where near another cyclist that he is going to be in serious trouble.[/QUOTE]

Cyclists have little to do with it. His anger is just there. He needs to understand you can't behave like that in public.
