    The current people who ride bikes have have never taken a cycling
    proficiency test and don't know the rules of the road God help them and us when they start
    to drive.

    The Mercedes almost taking out the dog walker, they would both have a better view if he trimmed the bush on the edge of the drive. Another element of my job is requesting that property owners keep their vegetation cut back when it hangs over a footpath or road, 5his applies to plants creeping on the floor that may be a trip hazard or plants overhanging that might catch people in the face.

    I feel your pain with the blind lady when you were dropping your passenger off (clip at 5:30). I've had the exact same thing happen to me when waiting to reverse into my driveway, with the reversing lights and indicator on, person trundles up behind, inches closer and closer to the point they were literally inches behind me, the whole time my indicator AND REVERSE lights were on, then beeped at me, when there was absolutely no other traffic whatsoever. I beeped them back and apparently that woke them up as they then reversed back from me and drove around, allowing me to finally back into my driveway. Thankfully it's only happened the once in 5 years plus of living where I do now but I think it's left me permanently paranoid that it's going to happen again someday!

    Oh, The Two Second Rule. Back in the Dark Ages when I was learning to drive, my father, who was an instructor at the Met Police Driving School, almost forcibly drummed it into me by making me say it aloud every time we were following another vehicle. That was over 50 years ago and I still use it every day. When I die those 8 words will be found engraved on my heart.

    When turning left always be close to the curb so cyclists can't undertake.

      @xo2quilt 25 днів тому +1

      Depending on the roadworks here in the western US happen from 7 PM to 7 AM, so most traffic isn't impacted. If it is a big job, they will work around the clock to make the impact shorter. Are the roadworks people government employees?? That could be the problem. Here, jobs are contracted out at a specific price/time frame (with penalties applied if you over on the time), so they are motivated to get the job done swiftly and correctly. When my city people fill potholes, they are usually lower quality jobs. Getting jobs out of government hands and into private businesses who have a reputation to protect gets jobs done better and faster, most of the time. Easier to fire private businesses or assess them penalties than to do that with government employees.

The issue is amplified due to the choke point of a left turning lane there which forks off pretty fast that can only accommodate one car as the straight on lane blocks the left turn.

      Rear end accidents are very common on roundabouts, this rule makes them more common. Also, you are only supposed to do it if it is safe to do so i.e., no one 6 inches off your back bumper and since everyone follows too close to each other everywhere, especially on roundabouts, and lots of roundabouts are fast moving and can be very busy, it is very rarely safe to stop on leaving a roundabout unless in heavy traffic when everyone is slow anyway.

And a lot of people commented, quite rightly, that you created confusion in the driver to your left by waiting a long time to emerge. And quoting Highway Code rules on roundabouts is fine but the rule you often forget, and never really consider, is the preamble to rule 103 "The rules in The Highway Code do not give you the right of way in any circumstance, but they advise you when you should give way to others.
