A driver decided the bike lane was their personal parking spot while waiting for traffic.
Bike lanes exist to give cyclists a safer, predictable space on the road.

This driver had heaps of room and time to pass safely but still choose to intimidate the cyclist by passing too closely.

Size and weight matter on the road, and so does patience.
Give space. Check mirrors. Protect vulnerable road users.

Red lights aren’t a suggestion. Blowing through an intersection like this is reckless and completely unacceptable.

A simple moment of patience and awareness could have prevented this. Failing to give way isn’t a minor mistake when vulnerable road users are involved, it can have immediate and serious consequences.

Coming up to road works, the lights turned red, yet the driver behind decided the rules didn’t apply to them and ran straight through.

Red means stop. No exceptions.

Impatient driver decides it’s acceptable to cross onto the wrong side of the road, driving straight into oncoming traffic just to avoid waiting.

There is absolutely no excuse for this kind of behaviour. A vehicle is not just a car, it’s a weapon when used recklessly.

Electric scooters going this speed is a recipe for disaster.

This driver intentionally squeezed past the cyclist for no reason other than to intimidate them.

What goes through peoples heads when they step into a car to think intentional violence is okay?

It's very worrying to see driving behaviour like this on the roads. If you can't overtake safely, stay behind.

Close to disaster, just because the driver got impatient and tried to overtake dangerously.

Road rules are there to keep everyone safe when on the road. If only drivers followed them the world would be a lot safer.

Arrogance caused another big incident.

The driver of this car deliberately hit the rider after coming much too close to the cyclist. There was not enough space to pass the cyclist safely.
