Cycling along on a very wide 40mph single carriageway with enough room for a heavy to pass me. No oncoming traffic, pretty light traffic in my direction. I have rear light on and high vis jacket so clearly visible, road has excellent visibility and is straight.
Idiot in a hatchback decides to overtake me within 10cm of my handlebars at 50mph. He had plenty of room to overtake me safely without even crossing the centre line as at the point he passed there is two lanes marked at a traffic light side road junction. This was deliberate.
What the hell is wrong with this person? Does just being on the road on a bike fill him was such rage that he wants to scare the shoot out of me? Is it in some deranged way amusing to threaten someones life?
You can see how people get killed by swerving slightly to avoid potholes.
