^ Yeah I agree, it is very easy to jump to the conclusion that the dangerous behavior of motorists is due to malice, whereas it is most likely due to ignorance. The lorry driver seems to show a lack of patience overtaking the cyclists around the outside of a bend on narrow streets. He felt he could squeeze his truck through the gap but failed to show much appreciation of the danger he was placing the cyclists in. Reckless?... yes, but malicious?
