Why?Speeding in Croxted Rd - Does it Pay Off? ( Bonus: Close Pass )Silvio Diego2023-07-03 | Drivers go above speed limits all the time, but is it worth it? Also, cyclist incriminates himself again by showing he's going above speed limits.
Title, thumbnail and First statement above is with a bit of sarcasm as speed limits do not apply to cyclists and 2nd is the most ridiculous idea in the world to try and enforce this on cyclists when drivers are not respecting it. I have reported the van driver for a close pass but as no notificacion of NIP came through I'm publishing the video. There are another 2 vehicles speeding on this video but I do know the police pays no attention to reports of speeding.
Speed limits are designed for motor vehicles. Rule 124 of the Highway Code sets limits for various vehicles, which MUST be complied with. Bicycles are not included. While you can’t normally be charged for speeding on a bicycle you could, in extreme cases, be charged with careless cycling (maximum fine £1,000) or dangerous cycling (max fine £2,500).Van Drives With Open Door!Silvio Diego2023-07-01 | Van driver takes a bend cutting off a cyclist and opening his door in the process.

Ride assertively and make yourself visible in the road by not riding too close to the kerb Take the lane where needed to discourage other vehicles from overtaking where it is unsafe to do so, e.g. at a pinch point in the road, on a bend or near a junction A little wave or thumbs up, thanking the other road users for giving you enough room when passing, never goes amiss

VAUXHALL ASTRA SRI 2010 Registration number: YD60KMM Body type: 5 Door Hatchback Colour: Grey Date of first registration: September 2010Naughty Cyclist Confronted!Silvio Diego2023-06-08 | A patronizing cyclist going through an amber tells off cyclist going through red... But who's right? Amber usually means stop, unless it’s unsafe to do so. If you’re too close to the line at the time the light turns amber, you may be committed, and braking sharply could lead to an accident. Technically it’s legal to go through an amber light, but ideally you shouldn’t do this unless you have to.
If the traffic lights are at a pedestrian crossing, the lights tend to flash amber before turning green. This means you can proceed if the crossing is clear. If pedestrians are still crossing, wait until it’s safe to go.Angry Motorists & Just Stop Oil Protesters VauxhallSilvio Diego2023-06-05 | South Lambeth road At 8am today, just Stop Oil supporters marched through the streets.

It is no excuse to say you're simply following a map on your phone and that's why you've picked it up. If you wish to use an app for directions you should fix the phone to the windscreen or dashboard, so it's in clear view while driving (but not obstructing your view), without requiring you to hold or interact with it.

If a cyclist hits a pedestrian is he/she immediately at fault? The way police and insurance companies treat accidents between a cyclist and a pedestrian follow a common trend: determine who failed to execute their respective duty of care. Simply being a pedestrian or a cyclist plays little role in who is at fault. When bodily injury or property damage are involved, the court or an insurance company will try to assign fault by judging which party broke their respective duty of care. A simple fact of you being a cyclist or a pedestrian does not determine the fault. ... In this video a naughty cyclist filtering in traffic has a close encounter with a pedestrian. What would you do as a pedestrian? Would you go insane on the cyclist? Taking into account that when a cyclist decides to filter in traffic needs to do it carefuly and taking care, but does the pedestrian have any responsibility as well? Watch the video and decide! My trolls will gloat over this video... but I publish everything in my channel... my many great skills and successes... and also the odd once in a decade mistake

So I wanted to make a bit of a statement on this video. The cyclist on this video is in a 20MPH speed imit zone, and was doing 23MPH... but is it possible that every other vehicle is going faster than the cyclist? Surely drivers who have a speedometer right in front of their faces would not dare to go above the limit right? slatergordon.co.uk/newsroom/can-cyclists-break-the-speed-limit discerningcyclist.com/cycling-speed-limits cyclescheme.co.uk/community/featured/cycling-and-the-law

Good or Bad?Silvio Diego2023-03-31 | Do you walk away from confrontation, or are happy to speak your mind if needed? Would you confront a bad driver? Would you have a word with a driver who just committed and offence? What would happen if the driver reacted violently or with a physical assault? I try not to interact with most bad drivers, but there are some occasions where I have to. If the bad driving affects me directly that is a moment when I feel I have to intervene. Like in this case where a driver ignores the red light and advances into the ASL and beyond. I have not reported this driver, to know why watch the video.Hot Spot For Car CrashesSilvio Diego2023-03-29 | Croxted road is one of the most dangerous roads in my commute!
