Cyclist causes accident

Reminds me of this one idiot I saw commuting towards the end of summer last year. Jumped red lights, almost wiped out other cyclists on the the cyclist paths, almost running over pedestrians and at a later stage almost wiped me out.  I eventually stop later next to him and asked him "Are you always such and Arsehole or is it just today".  That got his tantrum wheel spinning but never saw him in the area again.

My wife and I were lent road bikes on Saturday so we went along and did a ride with one of the Cyclelab Fourways groups.These groups have taken a lot of critism in the past about riding through red robots. The ride marshalls of our group made a point of reminding all the riders that they stop at all red robots and stop streets.On our way down Ceder Road near Fourways Shopping Centre we were stopped at a red robot when a group of Cycleworx MTBers came past us and went through the intersection.

Common practice on Cedar road - skipping red robots...ESPECIALLY vehicles with bikes in tow running late for their coffee run.

There is always a Twat - sometimes he rides a bike, sometimes he drives a car, sometimes he's at the bar or the rugby or the cricket, but make no mistake that twat will always be around.

 

If a twat gets hurt, irrespective of the circumstance it's hard to feel sorry for them.

Sometimes he is the idiot walking on the shoulder of the road, then into the main road, engrossed in his tablet/phone and oblivious to traffic! Had that one on Sunday!

Slight hi-jack

 

 

Can you please recommend one? I'm keen on a dashcam but no idea what to look for.

 

I had the EagleEye .... hardly worth the effort !  (the brand, not the concept)

 

The times I needed the footage:

- 0kb files .. you need to format the card monthly ... 

- sun glare, and not being able to get number plate detail

- dash-cam focused on bugs on the windscreen and no details of the cars ahead

 

 

good deterent for silly drivers and bad cops, but thats about it.
