You're not making your point very well for someone with a supposed IQ of 133.

I get the message that cameras are evil because sh*tty driving is the acceptable norm. But then again, it is only from him...but then RLJ'ing is not defendable.
That was a close overtake, endangering other road users in the outer lanes, probably more for them than the cyclist posting it.
**Editing this because Lee's playing of the devil's advocate often polarizes these threads after all**

User3143 said:No, that was a reply to BM about cyclists being the instigator in 'most videos' I simply asked what about 'the other ones then'?
User3143 said:Not really for reasons in respect of new drivers, mentality, culture, risk, strategy, education and implementation. Can't be arsed to go into now and Origamist knows more about the above then I do. I'm going to watch Predator 2.
BentMikey said:Yeah, 2Loose, I've no idea what he's trying to get at either.
dondare said:I get the impression that camera-toting cyclists condition themselves to notice and react to bad driving and possibly become more confrontational themselves. But then again, perhaps they were like that before.
martint235 said:I think I'm the opposite. Not had the camera for very long but before I had it, I was extremely confrontational, always willing to chase a moton down and have a good slanging match. Since getting the camera, I don't shout and swear (missus sometimes watches the films) and tend to just point to the camera rather than enter a row.
User3143 said:If I ever had a camera I'd film parts of my ride to eduacate my fellow cyclist brethen. Not as a tool to ride after some cabbie who made a genuine mistake and confront them in a car park. Then start a thread about what to do and use the fact that he was parked in a parent & toddler space (not illegal) as a contributing factor.
