Hose tip over

Beware the hose

Blind right hook follower

Right hooked in bike lane by oncoming car following blindly after safe turn by car in front. Fortunately the spider senses were half expecting it. Bonus points for the delivery rider also blindly turning into the lane ahead of me

Youi insurance denying liability for careless driver

I was cycling on Dampier Avenue in City Beach on 20 Feb, 2025 and the driver (Piotr Ogonowski, Mirvac, City Beach Projects, City of Perth SLSC) reversed out of his driveway at 11 Dampier Avenue in the direction I was travelling. At the point of being stationary, (where I was already within close proximity to the car) I moved to the right to avoid the car. Piotr failed to give way, did not indicate to signal he was proceeding and then failed to indicate again when immediately turning right. We collided less than 2 seconds after he started to turn right and I crashed to the road. I was lying on the road for 20 minutes before the paramedics arrived as I could not move.

Youi, Piotr’s motor vehicle insurer has been extremely frustrating to deal with. Youi has denied liability, leaving me with not only the injuries suffered, but a repair bill in excess of $16k for the bike and equipment damaged.

Three police prosecutors have viewed the CCTV footage and indicated the driver is at fault.

Youi, not a help company

Piotr, not a careful driver

The Month That Was March 2025

Looking back at the month that was March. Blind corner dive bombs, car’s in bike lane’s, hooks, chicken runs and many more dangerous driving acts that put the life of these cyclists in danger. This type of driving attitude needs to stop. UpRide shows how big the problem is, so there’s never been a better time to start recording your ride and join the fight to fix it.

Failure to stop at junction

While on a training ride a car coming from a side road failed to stop and drove into the side of me. The impact sent me over the bonnet of the car with my bike being damaged beyond repair.

The Month That Was February 2025

Chicken runs, red lights, trucks in bike lanes, blind corner dive bombs, car’s on bike paths, close passes, round’a’wrongs and U-turn fails. This is a special level of dumb driving. All these incidents plus many more were uploaded to UpRide in February. By recording and sharing your footage, you can join the movement to help make the roads safer for everyone.

Road rage

Close pass followed by emergency stop and rammed off road then physical assault. Driver guilty of dangerous driving, assault, leaving scene. Interim ban with full sentencing next month (March2025)
