1st white car - left plenty of room, how is that a "near miss"
2nd car - Bit close perhaps, about as close as every vehicle gets when manoeuvring in town traffic
Car pulling out - Why cyclist didn't slow down or use space to the left (I see the ped, they're also looking straight at the bike) I don't know, instead he chose to swerve into the oncoming lane - some training needed perhaps?
White Van Man - Quite how you expect wide traffic to overtake you in a narrow street while leaving you a huge amount of space I don't know - bit quick perhaps but he was simply getting past before the oncoming traffic made it even more difficult to squeeze through


Apart from the guy who pulled out, who might have had his boot slapped for the trouble had he not accelerated briskly, I'd not have had a problem with any of the people driving in those clips...

If you're too much of a pussy to ride your push bike, motorcycle or drive your car in town traffic then don't get wound up when people don't treat you like you need to be wrapped up in cotton wool 24/7

lol you sound quite angry there

Nah, happy as a clam mate

Is it cold in the sea, and do you slam shut when other sea creatures are nearby?

Or can you please trap a cyclist in your shell if it gets too close

damn cyclists getting in the way...

I saw a cyclist on the road once. Took ages to get the spokes out of my fairing.



...bad taste?

the camera gives no sense of perception at all, some look close, but they could be yards away.

gay report.

fact.

Swarms of students are a phenomenon in Cambridge not mentioned. I give cyclists plenty of room, but you have to have your wits about you, they're everywhere and as in most cities, don't seem to follow the same traffic laws as us...
