I nearly hit a man and kid on my bike today (but not that near), as i whipped out of a T junction, but they stepped out from behind a car like that. The guy started swearing at me, and I turned round and said that it was hardly my fault nor did I think that was a safe way to ever cross a road with a kid.
I am in rural Norfolk so I don't think people are ever on the look out for a bike...
Now seeing that vid not sure if i would've come across a complete ass.
I am also in rural Norfolk right now –- quite impressed with the number of cyclists out in the lanes, and how friendly they are.
Still an inordinate number of boy-racing wankers though. I just wish I could tell all the male drivers in this godforsaken county*: when I am riding in the middle of nowhere, and the only person I've seen for hours drives past me and beeps at me, I do not think 'how nice of him, he must like me'. I think 'I am going to die in this fucking field, aren't I?'
