What is there to say?
Basically deserted road, plenty of room to twitch that steering wheel fractionally left, but that’s just too much trouble for some.

I am reporting this infraction as a cyclist. The front and rear facing videos are attached. On 3/9/2025 at 1600 I was passed unsafely while cycling on N. Rampart Range Rd. The offender was driving a black Cadillac Escalade CO Plate: DCA 568 traveling north towards Titan Rd. That vehicle did not allow for 3 feet to my left heading into oncoming traffic. I would also argue that the vehicle was speeding and endangered my life as well as the oncoming vehicular traffic.
Today’s ignorant driver is 1HTM862, who fails to notice the two people, a bike, a dog and the red arrow that allows them to safely cross.
This intersection is a major pedestrian/bicycle access way between Hamilton Hill and South Beach
Close pass. Motorist seemed unable to abide by the law, choosing to assault cyclists instead. Video and incident reported to County Sherrif.
The driver cut me off as I was in the bike lane. I felt the SUV’s slipstream as it nearly missed.
No excuse for this reckless driving as well as a violation of the three-foot clearance law.
Two drivers blocked the trail crossing while waiting for traffic to clear up. At least one of them moved when they noticed me trying to cross.
The SUV driver was coming off a divided highway and merging onto a major city street. During the day, both roadways are packed with cars, and this maneuver would be impossible. But in the wee hours of the morning, the driver thought they were the only ones there. This is also a construction zone, which complicates things a bit for cyclists, as they are required to merge into traffic lanes to go around barricades.
Vehicle passing cuts the corner and misses by inches.
I slowed down to allow as many cars as possible to pass before hitting the button and activating the crosswalk flashing lights. When the lights activated, the Volvo was still far away and had plenty of time to stop. However, the driver, for whatever, didn’t respond. Like no reaction whatsoever.
Several drivers from the opposite direction made the left turn on red, as evident by the number of cars crossing the roadway when cross traffic already has a green light.
