Absolutely non of the highway code applies to cyclists, well that's their story and they're sticking to it.

There are some poor road users out there in/on all modes of transport I consider myself to be responsible and law abiding.

I applaud you for having the guts to put this video up knowing you may get an ear bashing, I think it's an invaluable thing for comparatively new riders like me to see. Who knows this video may even save someone from a similar incident or worse.

No point having a helmet cam if you can't post clips of yourself doing really stupid things

I got an sj4000 for Christmas but still haven't used it partly due to my shocking indecision on where to mount in which will be followed by the next indecision of how to mount it

While you're thinking, get a chest harness for under a tenner to try it out. Main problem is the battery life so for longer trips, it needs connecting up to a charger

Regularly analysing your footage to try and find out what you could have done better is a real value of recording footage. All too often I've seen videos posted and the rider claims the other person is entirely at fault, they don't like it when you point out their error(s) and it can degenerate into unpleasantness. |

There's "what you could have done better to predict/avoid/handle the accident" which is normally general good driving/riding practice. Then there's "who caused the accident" which is who broke the rules causing the situation to arise. Just because a biker doesn't want to crash and therefore (normally! ![]() So being "not at fault" doesn't mean your riding is perfect and there's nothing you could have done better.
