Incident type: Ute

This 20 second video illustrates what cycling in Lancashire is like: crazed nutter drivers who all know that there’s no possibility of Lancashire Constabulary taking action over just about any traffic offence- still less an offence against a cyclist. The first part is a close pass by white BMW HX21 SVT- this is accompanied by a loud blast of the horn which seems to me to originate from the BMW. If it did, I don’t know the reason- possibly just anger that a cyclist is on the road. Or the horn could have been wielded by another similar type of driver in the oncoming black Audi DA12 UEC. Then, to cap it all black Nissan Navara MT17 YBJ executes an alarming close pass. I haven’t reported the incident to the police

Guy had to pass me before the oncoming car got to us.

Black RAM gets stuck behind small white car who was waiting for a safe opportunity to pass us. Once the white car had passed by safely the black ute swerves at us when passing.

It’s clear that tradies write their own road rules. 1GJB ignores the ‘No U Turn’ sign to make a dangerous turn.

Today’s ignorant driver is 1HFL899 who blows through the red signal despite 2 cyclists crossing and the following driver tooting them for running the red light. The other cyclist seems to think that the helmet dangling from the handle bars offers adequate protection.

TH94WA charges into the intersection without checking that they are on a red signal. He does have the decency to stop, most people just try to keep ploughing through.
This intersection is a major pedestrian/bicycle access way between Hamilton Hill and South Beach.

Minimal traffic, 4WD did an appropriate overtaking manoeuvre but deliberately cut back in at high speed to within a metre. There was no oncoming traffic. Completely unnecessary

What can you say about someone who goes onto the wrong side of the road and a traffic island, over double white lines, because they won’t wait 3 seconds to overtake safely or legally

Quiet morning on Anzac and not many cars. Why did this driver elect to come so close to me. Only one reason he hates cyclists.

I was lucky enough to have a side path to pull over. Other than myself, there was no evidence of any human activity on the path as I continued westward at night.
