P6WAN - Cyclist hit by Car
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
P6WAN - Porsche M1 - Black - 2004 Tuesday 26th January 2016 - 8.10am Approx Queens Gate (Crossing Harrington Road). London Heard something behind me, but by the time I looked round couldn't see much as the cyclist was occluded by the parked cars. Checked the rear camera and found this. Late signalling by the Porsche, and lack of mirror use. Slow mo reveals the cyclist must have taken the kerb impact on his knee! Ouch! Genuinely hope he's okay!

How the Porsche got some pedal scratches :)

Hello. Would love to talk to you about licensing this for an upcoming TV series. Could you get in touch with me at kenneth.gawne@newsflare.com ? Thank you! Ken

Driver should have shoulder checked and/or seen the cyclist in his mirrors beforehand. Cyclist should have anticipated the driver MIGHT turn in and shouldn't have undertaken. Both at fault here IMO.
-
Vehicle driver indicated for three seconds, and as far as I can tell, braked as soon as the cyclist moved into sight in his window. Convertibles don't have a 3/4 window, so a shoulder check doesn't actually do anything. They are, i believe, much much safer around cyclists when the top is down.

Kt3cam, I hate to say it, but some channel has stolen this clip and is using it for their own monetary gain. Would you like a link to submit a strike?
Cheers -
wow... cool. he deserve it :) god gave him eyes :) he has a tunnel view
-
100 points to the car driver :) I really dont like cyclists.
-
ouch! who would be thinking hed get a left hook there, theres not even a turning!
-
Where was the car even trying to go? There weren't even any parking spaces?
-
At first glance I agree with those commenting on the rider's position at the lights. But then I realised that the camera is on the bike in the better position.
Drivers may think this unfairly critical of me, but we're I alongside a bike at a junction and looking for a roadside parking space for my penis extension, I would turn my head to check the proximity of other people (meaning the rider in the Porsche's blind spot was visible to any attentive driver at the lights).
Even if there were room to suit beside the bike from which the footage came I expect many of us would queue as he did and my opinion is that the driver could and should have avoided knocking the biker off. -
Honestly that is far more cyclist fault than motorists. Attempting to pass an indicating vehicle on the left hand side.
-
Know where he wouldnt have been hit? On the sidewalk. Or in a park. Places where toys like bicycles belong, not on motorways.
-
How are you? May we use this video in our channel giving you as the source in the video?

Cyclists are alloweed to ride two abreast with other cyclists, not with cars. And it wasn't filtering either because filtering is when the cycle can travel faster than the traffic and then only at slow speeds and with care. Cyclist should either get in front or stay behind, you know like overtaking and the rules for overtaking say the cyclist shouldn't be there.
When stopping at the side of the road drivers aren't taught to do a blind spot check.
80% and upwards the cyclist was at fault. -
It's all irrelevant anyhow since the legal system tends to side with the soft & squishy.
Some idiot did this to my lad, traffic moving approx 15mph, lad is signalling left but cyclist decides he is going for the undertake anyway. insurance paid the cyclist straight away, despite half a dozen witnesses (pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles behind) saying how my lad was indicating in plenty of time & the cyclist deliberately undertook just as my lad had started the turn. -
A simple case of two piss poor road users sharing the same space.
-
Not sure how that can be late signalling by the Porsche. He indicated as soon as he'd passed the side road, if he'd indicated any earlier the cyclist would have thought he was turning.
Bad positioning by the cyclist after the indicator had come on, he should have either accelerated or hung back behind the car.
Poor vision from the driver, unless he did it on purpose of course because the cyclist is uncertain of how cars tend to turn after indicating. -
I'd email the Police with a link, they can't easily pass this on the the station closest to the driver's address, which will be the investigating station if the cyclist has complained about the driver. They may even (yeah right!) decided to visit the driver anyway!
