Well, unless you were the man on th bike, that is.

Were you?

It seems you haven't watched the video.


Nugent doesn't need to watch the video.

I think Nugent is the poster that has said on occasion that he/it
doesn't click video links.

The prime directive of Nugentworld is 'Cyclists can do no right,
motorists can do no wrong'.


Indeed. Slight correction though. 'Cyclists are always wrong...'


Not always, by any means.

As an example, I was, overtaken (on the correct offside) by a fully
Lycrad-up cyclist on the Amalfi coast road (SS163) early last week.

He did everything perfectly correctly.

We subsequently overtook each other several times serially, according to
road conditions and the varying speed limit. We and other road-users
shared the road as we are all supposed to.

I found it amusing and reflected that in the UK, a cyclist in such a
situation would probably ride in an aggressively confrontational manner,
trying to prevent himself from being overtaken.
