No, he does not. He's a complete drama queen and deserves a slap. I just hope it's from a person and not a 2 tonne lorry that I suspect it will eventually come from.

Just watched this after meaning to watch it for a while now.

That CycleGaz was very annoying as was that Traffic Droid guy. See someone jump a red light, jumps a red light himself to chase them down to tell them they shouldn't do it... As the taxi driver said though those guys and people like them will all meet someone who will have no problem giving them a good slap at some point so I guess it's a case of letting it all take it's course.

That Scottish guy who was almost wiped out by the truck was pretty scary and the tenacity of the woman who lost her daughter was admirable to say the least.

I live in Manchester and regularly commute to work through the city centre by bicycle. I'm no angel when it comes to cycling but I'd say the amount of proper near misses I've had on a bicycle are comparable to the number of near misses I've had on motorbikes. Not many at all. I like to think I'm always aware of what's around me as I rarely cycle with headphones on and while I ride defensively I don't ride up the middle of any lanes if I don't have to! Ultimately I realise if I get into a fight with a tonnes worth of metal box on wheels I'm not going to win so why put myself in that situation?

On a related note, I've been thinking lately it would be pretty funny to go for a cycle with a helmet cam on and react to good and courteous driving in the same way these angry cycle vloggers do to bad driving except shouting thanks and kind messages instead of angry threats Laughing


Whats the fun in that? Watching the videos you would make would be like going to a boxing match only to see gay sex between mike tyson and holyfield rather than an all out angry boxing fight.
