At least we can use this footage to campaign against mandatory hi-viz.
What a massive amount of assumptions there on here based on very little information.
You assume people don't know more than the article gave.....
Plus this is a “comments” section, not “further investigations/information”. Fridays in particular are for posting rampant speculation and general WAG-ing on company time.
That could be read as "wives and girlfriends-ing" on company time, which is a somewhat different message to the one I think you were trying to send!
Looks probably like some drug dealer on drug dealer action to me. That's him taught about 'respect'.
The Daily Mail will love this. They can run a click-bait piece about how ALL drivers are homicidal-pavement-mounting-pyschos...
Nah - they'll run a piece on how two lycra-louts were riding on the pavement.
I think your sarcasm detector needs re-calibration.
Agree with the earlier comment - looks like a planned assault; the victim’s riding was incidental.
...until a public-spirited motorist, who also happens to be a keen cyclist himself, thought he could not pass up an opportunity do his civic duty by putting an immediate stop to this wanton flouting of pavement cycling laws and make them safe for local grannies out and about on their zimmer frames...
kids being exploited by drug related gangs - then it goes wrong - maybe not but a good chance
Looks like the driver had malicious intent from the way they sped into view, and the poor lads saw him coming and tried to get out of the way.
There's surely some back story to this...
Doesn't matter what they have done you don't mount the pavement to run someone down.
Looks like a targeted attack with previous. They no doubt did something to this person or pissed them off in someway. These are lads on bikes, not "cyclists", still out of order.
Whats the difference between a cyclist (i.e a person riding a bike) and a "cyclist"?
What are you on about? Of course they are cyclists. Anyone on a bike is a cyclist, by definition. What distinction are you making and why?
This site has a lot of "it means what I say it means" going on in relation to the word "cyclist". I've never quite got to the bottom of it myself, either.
they may have been on the pavement when hit, but they were clearly riding on the road itself as the driver approached.
