The cyclist was being a bit of a dick tbf, not the end of the world that the car creeped into the cycling box waiting for the lights to change, no need to storm after him and start calling him a "******ing prick" at the next lights

I'm with the driver of the car in that video. He shouldn't have encroached in the cycle area, but anyone who's ever driven in London, will be aware that there is a different set of rules on those roads. The to go chasing after the driver and start swearing at him through his window was road rage, the driver was acting in self defence.

That cyclist soon got back on his bike and did one.

Yes the driver knew before that
he had driven onto the Cycle Square
and drove on fast.
The Cyclist chased after him
to the next lights
but got real close to his window
creating the Driver to go into Road Rage Mode.


The Driver is guilty
but the cyclist was too Rude

Also the cyclists are being nobs at the start by spreading themselves out across that box in front of the cars, what's the point doing that when they are going to need to overtake you as soon as the lights go green

It wasn't even the driver, it was a passenger. I've seen similar incidents on the roads...everyone is in a rush and I would want to get round the cyclists too...

They are permitted to
due the amount that are on the box

When you front up to someone in any context you become the aggressor. Who knows what he would have done, and the way he stormed after him, I'd have been asking myself what he was doing, and what are my options.

The video shows that cyclist even went out of his way to chase the car, as after getting put in his place, he rides off in the opposite direction.

He started it, and the guy in the car finished it.

That's foreplay in Manchester.

This is precisely why I couldn't live in London, everyone's aggressive and gets in your way

I wish I could feel more angry for all the law-abiding cyclists on the road. But I can't.
