Worst is the red light jumper because he's willfully putting children in danger. One at the end is silly but it was a mistake and hopefully a learning experience, the guy going through the red lights will probably keep doing that until he injures someone.

@JamesHolloway1980 2 жыл бұрын

Have to say on balance the fast cyclist on the pavement before cutting back across the pedestrian crossing was worst, just for potential for injury and sheer idiocy. Last one, the right hook was a silly mistake, but honourable mention to the stupid reckless filtering who could have gone under the HGV or the Bus.

Good to see these making a comeback. Reckless filtering - speed through the junction and going past the bin wagon, not really knowing what is beyond it and that the on-coming bus was having to move over to pass a another vehicle.

Yo i know this is slightly late but it's really nice to see this series again, most of these videos were part of my early teenage years while learning to ride the roads (12~13y/o kid on the road on my own to school and back home then moving onto road bikes and then getting my drivers' licence at 18 with the army where i'm from. I can now drive cars, small/mid sized lorries and HGVs at 23y/o, still a trainee for a bus company as of now and still cycle the roads.) It's really nice to be able to pull experiences from different platforms to help with everyday travel/work.) Cheers from Singapore. Hope you're well, Gaz and Happy Lunar New Year (as of today in S.E.A 22/01/23)

I love watching silly cyclists who exposes that a minority of cyclists are reckless. I was crossing a zebra crossing when a reckless cyclist rode over as people were crossing. He clipped an old woman who fell to the ground and flew into me, forcing me to break my glasses, get a cut in my head and broke my nose. The cyclist was never caught, but he won't be the last and I am glad that a cyclist has made a channel to hopefully make other cyclists of the dangers of cycling recklessly.

That red light jumper put so many people at risk and clearly it’s habitual. That’s also the one who makes it hard to advocate for increased cycling infrastructure. The right hook is a close runner up. I guess as more people get out of their cars and into their bikes they continue to ride like they drive; without any thought to others sharing the road with them.

Red light jumper for me. Hopping the pavement at speed, with no visibility, with lots of pedestrians - that's ultimate silly and dangerous. Last dude made a bad mistake, but likely will learn from it and be more cautious making that kind of turn. Red light dude won't have learned a thing.

@deelitedmanchester4302 2 жыл бұрын

Definitely the red light jumper for me as that clip contained two of my pet hates in one. First of all, the obvious red light jumping. I never jump red lights as I actually enjoy the rest period that they often provide. And seeing adults riding on the pavement just winds me up. As far as I'm concerned, adults (and teenagers for that matter) don't belong on the pavement. Often when I see them doing so, they're travelling way faster than a pedestrian would. With the growing popularity of ebikes, both these events are becoming more and more common. Maybe new bikes should be supplied with a copy of the highway code. You can't force anyone to read them, but at least they can't argue they've never seen a copy! 😁

No thought was put into the creation of cycle lanes . Footclips: They are impractical in cities with a lot of traffic lights. Those foot cage strap ones are a better idea. 3:46 That cyclist that came from the right had no idea what was beyond the bin lorry and bus. Supposing a vehicle was pulling out? At that speed he wouldn't be able to stop

With the clipless pedals - we've all done it! I remember falling off a couple of times when I first started to use them. Not sure it's really worthy of inclusion, he wasn't one of those guys riding with a lack of consideration for others.... In answer to your question it would def be the red light jumper , especially in that situation. I don't agree with any red light jumping, but there is a difference between creeping over when it's completely empty and what that guy did.

There are some silly reckless cyclists out there true. You could kill or seriously injure somebody by even hitting them full on at 15 miles an hour. A lot of the time a bad cyclist can put himself at risk more so than others. There are a lot more cars than bicycles on the road. If a cyclist hits a car it's not too hard to work out who will come off worse.

Always tough to pick a winner although someone willfully risking wiping out a kid on the pavement - or anywhere else for that matter - is more than a silly cyclist. As a cyclist I'd prefer a different descriptive altogether maybe ' pricks on bikes' ? Sooner this example has saved up enough for that BMW the better.

The only way the conflict that's now endemic on the roads is ever going to be checked is by videos like these. Cyclists are the ones to police themselves, drivers are out of the frame only being seen as handy cash cows. Lets have a bit of understanding of all road users without retreating into the hacknied positions that we always seem to go.

All the *reckless* speeding cyclists are silly, yet riding fast in itself is not necessarily reckless, but keeping up the high speed regardless of anything is. The pavement red runner close call on the kids was pretty rude act indeed. Also the last one is far too common scene, some people just don't pay attention and are not prepared to anything, especially things like slowing down and yielding for other cyclists when it's their duty.

@@johnkeedwell5549 Looking at the big picture of the situation on Britain's roads, injuries and the very rare occasional death of a pedestrian at the hands of a cyclist are a drop in the ocean. Licencing and registration of a bicycle have proven to be a fruitless effort in the past. And where would you draw the line? Would a 14 year-old require insurance for and registration of their bicycle? It's preposterous. On the other hand, the policing of the roads in the UK is seemingly non-existent after years of Tory cuts. I would gladly support more enforcement of the rules on cyclists but the (rather good, when compared to many other countries) standard of driving in the UK is just getting worse with every successive year of pathetic enforcement, and cyclists are low down on the list of the police's priorities in that regard for good reason.

Why so many cyclist in your videos including yourself treat a busy road with heavy traffic and pedestrians on the side walks like a velodrome or tour de france on the finishing leg? I am a cyclist myself and a ecyclist with a fast bike but never go at those speeds yous do on these videos for safety reasons unless I'm in the car lane and traveling same speed as traffic when safe doing so.
