“CARS AT FAULT” DON’T BE AN AMBER GAMBLER IS RULE OF THE ROAD!!
Car at fault. Went through on amber.
When you are the most vulnerable person on the road you have to use your brain.
I'd say both at fault but with the majority on the cyclist.
Definitely cyclist fault
Cyclist went through a red. Classic cyclist.
Both amber gamblers
I dont like some of the stuff he shows like this one
Poor driving from the AL driver. The cyclists intention was to turn right (he was in the right turn lane only) The AL driver should have seen this and anticipated the cyclist doing just what he did. That was a late orange for the AL driver. (Is that a 20mph road – I think most of London is now) The AL driver could easily have stopped – no following traffic. Cyclist should have checked if it was clear before turning – he will from now on. I think the AL driver will be done for careless driving…
This is why everyone including Cyclists never should skip red lights. The taxi driver won't go through an amber next time.
Cyclists should stop jumping the gun thr driver has to go on yellow driver is in the clear cyclists fault going g too early as usual
The light was on Amber for the car and Amber means STOP
Disagree, amber light was on well before driver got to the stop line, no attempt to brake, though its obvious the cyclist went through the junction on a red, 50/50 blame.
100% the cyclist fault. He took off too quickly without ensuring all vehicles were through the intersection or stopped.
Very well handled Mikey – First Class
A bit of a shake up for both.
Did the cyclist do that on purpose 😂
Hi Mikey,
More than likely cyclist at fault. Both should have better awareness especially the car for obvious reasons. Lesson learned so both may do better from now on. Could have been more serious.
The cyclist has about as much situational awareness as a cabbage. Total idiot.
Cyclist is completely at fault, well done CM
Its insane how many people in the comments are saying its both fault of driver and cyclist. That insane cyclist jumped in front of the car!
frikk, that was so avoidable by all parties. OUCH!
what I like about Mikey is he cares about doing the right thing, not about blaming motorists.
Darwin cyclist right there. JFC
An amber light does not mean to speed up, the taxi needed to stop at the light.
first cyclisy was looking for an insurance claim. So obvious.
mikey decides to run a red light !!!
Glad you were there as a witness Mikey. Hope everyone OK 👍 👌
It almost looked like the cyclist crashed into the car on purpose?
Car driver jumped the lights
And you going through a Red light ? Like to call people, c@nt.
The cyclist was lucky, if he'd been 1/2 second quicker off, or the AL driver had slowed a fraction, he could have been under the front corner of it.
100% on the cyclist that one. AL driver would have had to stamp hard on the brakes to make the stop line, so absolutely fine to continue. Cyclist powered off without looking still with a full red light, not even red/amber.
Looks like he deliberately rode into the side of the car.
both went through red ?
Come gather round idiot cyclists. This is what happens when you run red lights😂😂
FAFO cyclist discovers that it's not a got idea to jump lights and ride in front of a big lump of moving metal. Hopefully he has had to pay for the repairs to the vehicle plus compensation for any trauma that the driver suffered.
Your incorrect!?
The car is clearly going faster than 20mph and although the light was amber before he reached it and dispite no traffic behind he he did not apply his brakes.
So even though the cyclists shouldn't have been there neither should the car.
I my opinion it's a 50/50 split
The driver should've stopped. He had plenty of time when the light turned to amber. The cyclist should've looked before moving.
Car driver is going fast to beat the light , however he does not go through red , but just . The cyclist is not aware of any road traffic and lunges across the road . Cyclist at fault , not sharpe enough . This cyclist will lose life if he does not take better care on those busy roads .
Interesting, not too long ago we chatted, here in the comments on one of your videos about Addison Lee. Something about how bad they were years, and years ago, when we cyclists had potatoes for cameras.
Looks like Addison had time to stop however, the cyclist caused this. An amber light does not mean go.
