It cost them points and a fine. That horrible clip makes you wonder how many times it has happened without being caught on film.

9 minutes!!

any chance of pointing out the times of interest?

 

[glenn forger]

Must admit I fast forwarded during the DRAMATIC MUSIC bit.

Gawd, it must have taken the Police three months to work out what actually happened in the video.

He is such a magnet for trouble! I blame the airzound.

Not sure who the verdict was without due car and attention - the driver carefully maneuvered his car with great attention to knock Droid off on purpose. Still at least he gets a few more hits on his YouTube Channel.

You mean a revenue earning one?

TBH that cyclist looks an idiot riding around festooned with all those cameras and lights - he's even got a camera stuck out in front on a stick FFS! Does he actually have a job to go to or does he just cruise around all day making imperious gestures at drivers in the hope of provoking them?

Really? I'm sure ol' droid doesn't leave home without his collection of cameras & lights given the amount of videos he has.

Looks like the guy being a nobber on Fenchurch Street this morning, except that that particular nobber had a downhill style helmet with chinguard as well as the dark glasses and face mask, and was blowing a whistle every second or so. I assumed it was because he couldn't see where he was going.

No matter how he rides, there's never any excuses for deliberately using a vehicle to knock someone off their bike.

Echo location... Dolphins swear by it.

Is that what the video showed? I'm afraid it was tl;dw. The way to avoid being knocked off is to avoid being a nobber.

That's the point. You would have to be completely blind or stupid not to notice his cameras, and that driver still tried to kill him for no reason.

No he didn't.

The roads are full of knobbers, doesn't mean you can try to kill them. Cabbie wasn't delayed, cyclist did nothing wrong and the driver uses two tons of metal to admonish. Still driving round London, that psycho cabbie.
