What happened next?

What a complete nob lol. As you've said the car was already on the roundabout when the cyclist arrived.

As for the tosser comment, I can understand why emotions get raised sometimes, it can be hard to control your emotions if you think your life has been put in danger.

For example I took primary on the bit in the link below signalled and went to turn right only for the car behind me to attempt to overtake as I was turning. It shook me up a little and worse still, the tosser of the driver got out of his car and started laying into me so I completely lost my rag.

And yeah quite a lot of Millbrook is a bit rough, never been a fan of that bit, it used to be old farmland, basically a big floodplain that has been covered in concrete. It's bad enough how industrial the area looks but the noise problems are terrible. You have the docks/trains/motorway/major A road nearby so must be an utter nightmare to live there. The funny thing is that the place closest to all that noise is actually the nicest part I'd argue - Redbridge as it has a couple of nice pubs and a riverside park, slightly let down by the rather imposing huge towerblock across the road.

My faith in humanity is restored.

Just because the person in the OP clip is a cyclist, doesn't mean that he can act like a twunt and expect law abiding CC cyclists to condone and approve of his behaviour.

Also cutting the corner didn't help - it's called a roundabout not a throughabout

Would it have helped if those hatched lines went straight across rather than all curvy?

Looked through a few more of this persons problem video's. Still not found anything wrong. One was a country lane and the person overtaking was on the other side of the road, but went too fast for the cyclist and wasn't happy?

Without wanting to generalise but he is in the rougher part of Southampton, probably should give him credit for being able to stand up let alone expect him to have a semblance of manners.

Easy tiger, I was raised not a 30 second cycle ride from Kendal Avenue shops & the tower block at the end was my paper-round!!

No one noticed the big all caps 'MY ERROR' in the title of the video, then?

That was only added recently, after he was shot down by just about everyone.

Just remember guys, the more views his video gets, the more adverts will be played and the more money he will get from google.

True. I reckon the uploader could possibly make 2p out of this video and I for one would not want to contribute to this guy making a million squid by 7089.

As the OP of this thread, I will readily give Southcoastsurfer credit for heeding the advice he has been given. He has changed the title from criticism of the driver to criticism of himself.

I commented on his original, and was promptly banned from commenting on any of his videos. But following the posting here, a number from here went over there and pointed out his errors.

He has heard the message and taken it onboard.
Well done him!

And that's why you go around a roundabout. I came into conflict with a car this morning on a mini-rab. We were both turning right and while I was doing it properly the driver cut it, forcing me to stop and almost have a clipless.
