Aberdeen traffic violation compilation 1

[@dylancode]

#1 is crazy! How do they just not notice they're driving on the pavement?! Or they do notice... If so, why? The road was clear!

[@Cohen.the.Worrier]

He's parking there.

[@QiuEnnan]

yep they were parking I think but that’s not an excuse! though it was strange how long they drove on the pavement for!

[@wibbley1]

Got confused. He normally rides a bike 🤣

@@wibbley1 You’re obviously very biased and hypocritical

[@wibbley1]

@@QiuEnnan Biased, yes. Based on years of seeing and having to put up with arrogant and entitled, yet very poor cycling standards on the road. Hypocritical, no. Personally, I would like to see mandatory 5 year re-testing of all road users. It seems so many motorists forget all they were taught immediately after passing their test. It seems the norm to not indicate, or slap on the indicators whilst actually turning, making indicating pointless. My pet hate from other road users. For bikes, of course there should be licencing and education. We did the cycling proficiency scheme. Whilst a start, six hours of riding round the playground does not give anybody the road skills required to ride safely on todays busy & congested roads. Pedestrians, yes they need training. We had Tufty & The Green Cross Man at school. Just an hour or two. It should be ongoing tuition throughout the whole of the school years. We see so many idiots just walk out, fixated on their phone, or wearing ear-buds, totally unaware of their surroundings.

Good compilation video, but you have to be so careful on the roads of the UK cycling.

Audi drivers always annoyed if you don't let them enjoy the whole width of the road

[@wibbley1]

Not sure there were any issues here? Just a biased cyclist. One could say there was no need for the bike to squeeze down the inside of the queuing traffic, to then just hold up all of the cars behind him. Selfish riding. Send the video to Asley Neal & get his professional opinion.

[@QiuEnnan]

Why should I wait in queueing motor traffic which I don’t contribute to at all? Nothing in The Highway Code says I can’t do that. On the other hand that overtaking was inappropriate.

[@wibbley1]

Because it is called roadcraft and exercising a bit of give and take on the road. Rather than politely remain behind the car that was clearly indicating left, you undertook it & no doubt then held it up when the traffic started moving. You gained nothing by this, yet held up another road user, which no doubt you had no thought or concern for. You are correct bikes contribute nothing. They pay nothing towards the upkeep of the roads, the cleaning or repair of them, the maintenance and electricity costs of traffic lights, or a single penny to any cycle lane. At least you are not like Adrian Chapmanlaw. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3jXmJZ5dq56fK8&lc=UgyGIeSV4sUVAksU6sR4AaABAg.A3IcT8pRkBZA3NeoAoZRjV&ab_channel=AshleyNeal-JustCycling

[@QiuEnnan]

@@wibbley1 Wrong - I didn’t delay the driver indicating to turn left. Besides, it was clear they were not going to cut me up. The Highway Code says to not overtake where you would force another road user to slow down - they forced me to.

[@wibbley1]

@@QiuEnnan Clearly indicating left. The video cuts too early, so we cannot see if the blue car you undertook as well, overtakes you before the lights. This is called give & take on the road. You stopped behind the white car & could have remained there, so when the lights changed both it & the blue car in front could move safely without risk, Instead you got as far forward as you could, but sensibly did not try to undertake the bus. I must say that in the videos you post, they all demonstrate safe cycling and an understanding that it is everybody's responsibility to avoid risk, regardless who 'is in the right'. I doubt that you will be featuring in any of Ashley's videos.

[@QiuEnnan]

@@wibbley1 The driver did not overtake me again before the traffic lights. I moved off ahead of them and they turned left behind me. By the way, I have already sent videos to Ashley before and he said my riding was good.
