Incident type: Ute

Really close overtake just before a stop sign

1BLJ257 doesn’t bother to check the lights before entering the intersection. I have to point out to him that the turning arrow is red. He also doesn’t bother to indicate either.
This intersection is a major pedestrian/bicycle access way between Hamilton Hill and South Beach.

Cycling in the left lane when the Ute without even looking takes the left from the right lane without an indicator into my path. If I didn’t slow down he would have definitely hit me.

A 2 lane road early on a Sunday morning, the driver passed so close I could slap the side of the car with a flat hand.
Because of this, the police couldn’t claim it wasn’t within a metre, so instead that said they wouldn’t do anything because “you were in the middle of the road”. And signed off the call with “I look forward to your complaint”.
This was Fremantle police who have previously lied about charging drivers.

A punishment pass, & then the driver revved their engine several times to create a cloud of smoke.
The WA police offered excuses on behalf of the driver about narrow lanes, & had a “difference of opinion” about creating excessive smoke, which is also illegal.

Ego truck 1IEG848 is originally in the correct lane but illegally jumps into the Bus/Bike/Taxi lane to try and q-jump. He finds himself behind a cyclist who is legitimately using the lane so he toots me because I’m slowing him down. When he gets the chance he close-passes me to express himself and the following ego truck 1ENW619 does the same thing.
Twats.

1GSF441 thinks coming up to a busy intersection is a great time to fire off a few quick texts.

Eve Services utility vehicle registration 820 IP8 unnecessary close pass

I was riding home in light traffic & this vehicle, owned by a local cleaning company, decided he didn’t need to use the right hand lane despite having no excuse not to.

Black Mercedes ute 1HKY 839 deliberately and illegally pulled out from side road as I was passing and turned wide with corner of car aimed directly at me and turned just enough to avoid hitting me and I braked to a stop and clipped out. Male driver yelled something inaudible (probably illiterate 🙂 at me
