How much compensation ?

I'd have held back and not passed the van. We always have to consider whether we've been seen. I'm not so in a hurry that I would have risked it. Maybe that's why, in 10 years, I've never even come close to being hit.

Its what happens when you get cheeky

Does anyone know what brand of camera the cyclist was using ?

If you ask me, the designers/engineering firm who design the transport infrastructure should also be legally liable for accidents like these. After all, the fact the road provides poor visibility for drivers and little safety for cyclists contributed towards the accident. If transportation engineers are not responsible for the dangerous environments they create, we will just receive more dangerous environments.

No way would I cycle at that speed through such narrow spaces, agreed it was the van driver fault but self preservation must play a part.

Having dodged the first three, that cyclist was obviously boss level. Kudos to sainsbury! 😂

£6000 minimum.

No way would I have gone up the inside of that Golf at the beginning, until it stopped coming left, classic pinch point with no escape

Cases like this are why I have a GoPro recording my front view and a Garmin Mini 2 dash cam recording my rear view. I've been hit a few times and most drove off after so now I'm ready and I'll have zero mercy. Especially if they lie like this driver ended up doing. Or try running and I get them on the camera or both. I still need a bilateral hip replacement from the last time I was hit. And it was a bad one. But I was lucky because my helmet did it's job well. I was going down a dark road on my ebike driving it legally and not like a dummy(I am always paranoid of idiots on their phones etc before I ever got hit the first time so I don't play games like a kid on the road), and with lots of extra reflector stickers, even on my helmet, and with lots of bright LED lights front and back and someone going 30-35mph hit me full on from behind and I flipped backwards into the air, my head hit their hood or corner of their roof and I came down on my two feet and my hips got FUCKED and took all that force when coming down. Like jumping from a building or something and my hips took it. They left me. I actually rode side saddle like a horse on the ebike all the way home a few miles. NOT a fun time. Got mostly fixed up and now I'm just waiting for the right time to take months off from work and be in bed for months. UGH. So yea, have your cameras going always.

nearly all the bicycle crashes with cars would be avoided if cyclists would move to the sidewalk from the street and just drive on proper situational speed. poorly visible and unregistered vehicles with untrained drivers driving among the cars with no speed control is a system designed to cause crashes. and it's only a loophole in the law that these cases are blamed on the car drivers, law demanding everyone else to see the cyclist but not demanding the cyclist to be visible or to drive at situational speed.

Highlights importance of cameras (both for bikes and cars) and er, not lying when you fill out insurance claims, I guess!!!

Enjoying the undertaking job ?

that cycle lane is a death trap, needs a physical barrier to protect cyclists, white lines clearly dont work

0:07 What is with zig zag lines?

Agreed it was the van drivers fault, but there is very little risk aversion from the cyclist. I would be very wary of cycling at that speed down that tiny gutter. So many things could have gone wrong from pedestrians stepping out, to what did actually happen. If I was cycling, I would have very slowly and carefully filtered, either on the right side of the cars, or even perhaps gone on the pavement through the narrower parts to be more visible. Remember, being safe on a bike does not equate to following the highway code. Often following it, puts you in more danger.

But what camera is this? It’s so clear and I’m looking for one

As a cyclist I just try and avoid cycling on the inside of vehicles. Just hate getting trapped on the inside and in their blind spot.

This is why I quit cycling. I’m a pastor, and I’ve buried two cyclists in my career.

I'm a biker ,and bike lanes are a death trap. Vehicle drivers are looking forward primarily and bicyclist are not plainly visible. Maybe some type of high intensity lights might help,but being that close to so many moving vehicles with no response time is why I get on side streets as much as possible

You guys are having a bike lane?

This is not incident, truck driver did it on purpose

Those are not proper cycling lanes. They are white lines of death. Like everything in the UK,its done on the cheap

I need a decent cheap camera if anyone has a suggestion - other day saw cyclist almost hit by left turning van off lights

I can understand the cyclist view of course in the video, but not being a cyclist except in the gym, personally I could not go up the inside of waiting traffic as this cyclist did and so many do, just because there is a bike lane does not give you a god given right to zip up the inside or zip up the outside and think that every driver can see you, cyclist are like annoying flies they buzz around you from all directions, and worst of all, give someone a bike, a helmet and a snazzy outfit and suddenly there all the on the Tour de France race on our public roads, they jump red lights, jump pedestrian crossings and anything else which gets in the way of there personal time trials, pain in the arse, if cyclist ever start having to pay road tax, insurance and pass a test I'm sure the motorist would pay them more respect.

Paint is not cycling infrastructure. This kind of “cycle lane” is next to useless.

I never trust cars i think ill get a camera hope you are ok

UK has the worst bike lanes I've ever seen and the most stubborn drivers

The Roadcraft book, the one police use to train motorcyclists, and the one we use at the IAM, teaches very clearly never ride faster than you can see to stop! The van was at fault, but the cyclist didn’t give himself any hope of avoiding the collision due to his inappropriate speed!

what happened to you do you still ride on the road ? it's like you cyclist have a death wish with all these not so brilliant drivers around if he had hit you over 30mph you could be dead wow good luck fella hope you see your next birthday

Ideally cycle lane should be 2.0 m for no overtaking scenario.

Plz stay behibd big vehicles...never ever b in tjeir blind spot..they caant protect u if they cannt see u..b bit considerate urself

A bit odd that all of this happened in front of a police van, and still they had no witnesses. Most likely because the police van (as usual) was driving recklessly

Sorry in my book i don't call this a bike lane. More Like dead zone a good way to get killed more like gutter riding driver blind spot.

Jeebus! You’re either braver or more idiotic than me for overtaking those big vehicles on the inside like that. I mean, yeah, you’re in the “cycle lane” but still. The one rule driven into me about overtaking large vehicles on the left is… don’t do it.

What kind of camera do I need continuous looping battery or lithium powered?

That just goes to show how dangerous it is to ride that quick down a tiny cycle lane passing slow moving cars like this. Great he won his case, great that it wasn't his fault, but he still got hit because he was doing something stupid.

Whew, that isn't much of a lane and the drivers show it almost no respect. Not a place I'd want to ride. Glad the case worked out for the cyclist.

So the cyclist sued the truck driver for a mistake? I’m sure he was fine but wanted that money.

How much I hate riding between these big trucks like this. 2 or 3 people have been killed in the last 2 years riding on the bike routes where I am.

There should be a cycle speed limit of 10mph when undertaking, this person was way too fast and an accident waiting to happen, undertaking on a pedestrian crossing at speed, riding without due care and attention

jesus christ, I should apologize to the bike lanes on gravois and broadway in my city for calling them sub-par

We do live in this type of world

Motorists have no respect.

I started cycling with front & rear cameras; I also drive with a dashcam. I needed to have an email exchange with my local law enforcement, to determine what specific evidence i needed to provide to them, and to whom, in order for them to investigate and take further action. I am happy to say that we have it just about right now and I am able to provide other cyclists with guidance of how to deal with these incidents, even when they do not result in a crash. I'll also say that you should be emotionally prepared to abandon your effort, when you do not have the evidence to press the matter; it's not fair to use law enforcement to simply vent about the general conditions. They have to be there and see it, and those resources are stretched in my community.

Man - what a lovely day for dmanoeuvres

I don't like the way the cycle lane disappears when there is a bus stop, or pedestrian crossing - the traffic still needs to know where the lanes are....

If a vehicle you are undertaking has to take avoiding action, result one dead cyclist, bad decision.

Thats why you dont undertake you knob.
