While indicating the intention to go around a parked car, the passing car drove so close that the mirror impacted the hand of the cyclist...
It is clear that there is a parked car ahead, and was NOT a sudden change by the cyclist.
The older male driver should be made to have a driving test!
The vehicle was driving in the centre lane, and then changed into the left lane.
The vehicle then continued to move into the bicycle lane, causing the cyclist to take action to prevent collision.
Report given to police (with video):
When the lights went green, the car behind the cyclist (XCE395) sounded the horn twice when cornering to suggest to get off the road.
(Note: not able to capture Registration Number)
Another case of a driver who does not consider that a bicycle is a vehicle.
.
This is a common move by cars who do not consider a bicycle as a vehicle.
(Note that the bike lane ends)
.
Another Intersection Hazard...
The back wheel of the car almost runs over the shadow of the cyclist's head.
The bicycle was nearly laid down with skidding under the heavy braking.
This incident has been reported to the police.
