Please report dangerous drivers to the police - Roadsafe. Report to plod, not just whinge here.

"road rage"... the acceptable face of assault.

Never forget the time jumped in a Black Cab with my Scottish mates who all live in London, cabbie heard the accent and off he set on the long way round to somewhere in town. When one of my mates asked why he was going that way, cabbie got all sheepish, said sorry lads thought you were from out of town. Cheeky bugger

My memorable interactions with London cabbies have all been shit. My memorable interactions with Uber drivers have all been great.

Devil's advocate: possible confirmation bias.

The quote from the cyclist sums it up really, 'I'll be a witness if you want to call the Police' reply from the cyclist 'What's the Point'

Indeed, knowing most of them doesn't go anywhere.

I for one welcome this.

To the driver of the silver Bentley reg R4Cut
You are a massive cunt
I thought you were being nice moving over to the right to let me past, then sharply swerving left almost into me is a dick move
As is doing what must be close to 60 in a residential zone

Got undertaken/close-passed by a car on a one-lane road today while I was on the Vespa. Person was on the phone as well. Very hairy. Had my GoPro on, for no real reason. Can I email that to my local cop-shop or something? Not sure how clear the phone is when she passes, but it's still in her hand when I say hello at the red light just ahead.

Also, does it affect the chances of the police doing anything if I call her a "f**king idiot" several times on the footage? Feel bad about that sort of language, but I was still freaked out by being nearly clipped.

Going by the experiences on this thread, plod will use any excuse they can not to pursue the driver - whether it is swearing on camera (you know - because rude words are mitigation for dangerous driving) or that cameras themselves are not actually a good representation of what they are filming, because science-I-read-in-a-comic-book.

YMMV though.

What's the story?

Presumably they're like ants. Once one c*nt lays the trail, the rest can't help themselves?

Edit: new page fail (again)

Oh the joy of a 'Cyclists Only' sign ..... Can't wait for these to make it out to the provinces.....

Drivers drive on road build for cyclists only.

We're allowed to ride on 'their' roads so they can use ours. Or something.

What's the story?

Cunts, cunts everywhere I'd imagine

Road tax must have been involved somewhere, it pays for everything.

This lane is directly outside my office. In the drivers' defence, the lanes are brand new and if you're exiting a side road and turning left onto Blackfriars Road northbound it's easy to just trundle onto the new cycle lane because it's in exactly the same place as the northbound carriageway used to be - and all the road markings and signs have yet to be put up. You're then stuck on the cycle lane until the lights by Southwark station (where these photos were taken).

presumably there's signage informing drivers that the lane is for cyclists only? no excuse.

There are plenty of excuses. It's just that none of them are very good.
