WarmSoftKitty - Cars should ALWAYS have the right of way over a non motored vehicle
Snipe Camp - I love how alot of people say the cyclist is in the wrong. He wasnt, it was
his right of way! At a roundabout (assuming he is in the UK) you must give
way to the right. He did, the car didnt.
I also love how some people are saying cyclists should be fully provisioned
and trained...
Let me tell you something, people in cars are required to be 'trained' via
a lesson and test. But the car drivers still crash into other cars ect.
If you think a cyclist having to be trained or tested to cycle on the road
should be law, then you are full of stupid thoughts.
I personally have been trained, have been on 3 courses and have a full
cycling proficiency... Yet I still get hit by cars now and again, and in
one situation, at a roundabout like this video.
Please, please, please keep your idiotic comments to yourself!
Gilles Van Hooff - Bikers think they're allowed to do everything, that they don't have to pay
attention to the cars in traffic because they think the cars and other
motorized vehicles see them, if you're driving a car there is so much stuff
that you're not seeing or when you see it it's too late.
Myxo Rides - On a roundabout it is give way to the right simple as that. Car driver was
in the wrong as he did not give way or even seem to look.
Personally I never trust anyone on the roads and would have slowed a bit
for that roundabout.
Snipe Camp - Also, after re watching a few times, we can see, at 9 seconds into the
video, the black car had already pulled out and this means the car that hit
the cyclist could have crashed into the black car !
cherokee schill - Jesus. A classic case of fail to yield. I hope you are recovered. I can't
believe she tried to pull you up by grabbing your arm. Never ever move
someone who has been injured unless not doing so would cause them more
serious injuries.
Jim Costello - Sure, blame the victim. The vehicle who lawfully had right of way (as in
the cyclist - not the car). You probably blame rape victims for the way
they're dressed, too. Would it be your child's fault for being in the road
when they get hit by a car?
La France - WOW WHAT A FAIL ON YOUR PART
lee a dorney - Ive noticed its normal for a car driver to pick up a cyclist and then
magically they'll be ok.. ~ WHEN ITS NOT FKG LIKE THAT !
Chris The Cider Guy - I was involved in an almost identical collision a couple of years ago.
Drivers like that should be forced to go on a "road awareness" course, or
something like that.
yodabolt - This is why my bicycle is one you pedal in your rec room for hours and
never get anywhere. Besides there is no provision for bicycles on the
roads around where I live and everyone is driving a damn 4x4 monster truck.
GeoffAAA - problem might be that a lot of driver drive over the centre of them small
painted roundabouts and don't treat them as such. If they stuck a proper
bollard in the middle so people had to drive round them properly, then
drivers would be treating them as roundabouts.
be8282 - fuck...cyclists/scooter riders have balls of steel to put your life in the
hands of other drivers and also fucking old granny drivers who cant see for
shit and can hardly walk... wow..you guys are like kamakaze pilots
April K - im sorry this happened to you :(
MrBMO759 - wow that's some bloody gore alright
theslize - That did not look nice. But great with all the people helping! thats
sometimes a rare sight. But everyone makes mistakes, even good drivers(not
saying the driver was a good driver) so great to see how there was kept a
good tone at the accident. Hope you are okay!
Ben Stahr - The real tragedy here is wearing socks & sandals.
BuddyAckerman1 - And the real tragedy is : It's going to be very hard to colour match on an
old Mondeo like that, especially when it's a metallic
3kliksphilip - Seriously, how can so many people be on the car's side here? Maybe it's
because people don't have roundabouts in America so don't know how they
work, but you have right of way over people to your left. All those people
saying that he should have seen it or stopped... I'm sure that if he knew
that some one would pull out in front of him, he would have, but that's not
how roundabouts work. Hindsight is a brilliant thing.
swinderz - Speaking as a traffic officer, the cyclist was on the round about and the
car hadn't reached the give way line to the junction. So in theory and by
law the cyclist had right of way.
ldalfkjahsl - Cars don't pay 'road tax' they have no right to be on the road!
Silvio Diego - truly dreadful accident, the pouring of the blood in front of the camera is
terrible, yet very cinematic! :)
Titan9mm - The guy in sandals needs to seriously iron those pants!! Just saying!
Will Morgan - It's funny how the driver of the Mondeo didn't give way to the Audi either!
tom arter - Sandals & socks. FFS
Adam Nonnenmacher - Wow that driver seemed soooo concerned that she could have killed you..
some people...
The Madhatter Music - Line on the road means yield, driver failed to do so. Pedestrians and
cyclists are always first priority on the road.
Dan Bob - socks with sandals shocking
Spag Hetti - What's the best way to land when in a bike crash? Using your hands? Curling
in a ball? Tour riders crash all the time and most of them seem ok and just
carry on again.
Ben Harris - They didn't even apologise! Fucking dickhead!
Nathaniel Thompson - Dear Andy, I really feel for you and how good that you caught it on video.
I had an accident recently and unfortunately broke my elbow badly. I've
been putting a short film together. It's called "It's not just the
vehicles" and its a general awareness pointing out that its not just the
vehicles it's the people. As 95% of accidents are caused by Human Error. I
wanted to use 10 seconds of your clip in my film, I have already edited it
in as I assumed your video is on youtube you wouldn't mind it being seen.
The short film will be online and on my website, nothing big, but just in
case. Thanks. Take care! Happy cycling!
mario chavez - She should've finished the job.......
tritriplekylie - thats nasty, i mean socks and sandals, really?
faceplant on a bicycle, never a nice feeling, hopefully it was too bad
aaardvarkkk - NEVER assume they're going to stop. Duh!
Karnan Aruliah - I am a cyclist myself. Do not depend on road rights to save your life. As
shown here, always presume the driver has not seen you.
phi bridge - Well worth watching 5*
fuck you cock munch - It was either you or the audi
The Cypher - That motorist is an ass, should be banned from driving for eternity.
Desmond Evans - Nasty accident. Looked incredibly painful. Glad to see you wrote that your
recovering well. Can I what afterwards ? (Insurance details. Stuff like
that )
LsOLightsOuT - For those defending the driver of the car, you do realise that the car
pulled out even though another car was already going towards the
roundaabout... that led to a single lane...
Dla was polecam, zobaczcie sami: (nic nie ma do polecenia).
