Cycling eastbound on the Panorama Road loop in Sandbanks and reaching the sharp turn onto Banks Road, a black Range Rover decided to overtake at that point and narrowly missed hitting me.
Incident type: SUV
Impatient drivers use the transit lane to q-jump all the time at the risk of a $100 fine.
This is disturbing because the driver is dangerously close behind me and sporting completely unreadable plates.
Today’s incompetent driver is WL13 who doesn’t think twice about blowing through a red light even when people are crossing.
This intersection is a major pedestrian/bicycle access way between Hamilton Hill and South Beach
SUV had plenty of room to keep to the left with no oncoming traffic. He/she decided to keep it close and unsafe (unlike the preceding courteous driver).
Driver decided to use his vehicle as a weapon and try and frighten us. Clearly deliberate as nothing coming the other way and we had flashing rear lights and high visibility clothing
Approaching the intersection the light turned red and I came to a halt. The motorist behind me continued through the red light, performing a close pass and right hook attempt.
Motorist performs a close pass on the right as I am merging right into the beginning of the bicycle lane.
Liveryman performs illegal close pass.
Dangerous close pass by a SUV who would risk hitting me, the cyclist, to overtake me and squeeze through between me and parked vehicles just to join a queue of cars waiting at the traffic light.
I entered a choke point with pedestrian island in center of street. Overtaking pickup truck squeezed through close to me. I yelled to move over, he then slowed down to yell back at me (unintelligible). I yelled back about state law distance.
Since he later moved into my shared lane BEHIND me and turned right. I guess I am lucky he didn’t pull over in front of me to brake and turn right.
