You might get a cycle lane.
– Drivers will pull out into it without looking first
– Drivers will park in it when they shouldn’t
– Drivers will drive and turn across it without looking.

White car at 0:54 gave me the heebees. I would've been covering if not on, the brakes.
The barriers seem to work. There was the one car who tried to get in your lane, and vans still stopping in the bike lane.
Personally, I hate these type of bollards. Ones in a vid looks fine, but usually (here, in my place) they put it too often, so that you cannot swing in and out; and they also narrow bicycle lane, so that you have 0 chance to overtake any other cyclist.
What are the rules on a car overtaking a cyclist if the cyclist is in a line with a barrier. Still 1m50?Just curious whether the bollards impact on overtaking rules.
Hey, you Londoners may complain about your cycle lanes…..be lucky you have what you’ve got. The most cycle lane I get round me is a 50 yard strip on an A road that didn’t really need a dedicated cycle lane, and certainly not one so short!
That's a of freedom to right!!!
Too many people condensed into the UK's relatively small land mass. Too many vehicles for our infrastructure to accommodate. Something will have to give.
People in the UK just don't know how to fucking drive, I drive in London and sometimes it's just disgusting, literally a free for all.
Things could always be better, but they could also be worse. Roads I bike here sometimes not only don’t have a bike lane but also don’t have a paved shoulder or even a sidewalk. This is on 45 mph roads. If you want to bike, ride in the gravel and grass shoulder or say a prayer and go in the car lanes. This is in the suburban Washington, DC area.
What speeds are you doing in the second half? My brain couldn't keep up
Barriers should be placed on the line
Thank you for cycling recklessly fast during heavy traffic, much appreciated.
The morons who design these so called cycle lanes all think cyclists just tootle along at 5 or 10 mph.
This is better than most UK cycle lanes. Posts like that aren’t always helpful as grit and other road debris accumulates around them.
Cars are so much faster than bikes – Whoosh! What was that?

Your warp drive is so powerful it distorts the spacetime continuum making the lamp posts and other objects bend as you go past. Either that or it's an optical effect of a wideangle lens.
Why the bloody hell are you undertaking a car that's ahead of you and indicating left?
Far too fast at a zebra crossing
But it's us cyclist's that are to blame for the tools parking in the bike lanes 🤪🤣🤪
Look and indicate when moving right
What's the annual road tax you have to pay to be able to enjoy all those bike lane features?
Cycling lanes around my home are much more widely abused than this !
I really don't know why councils bother wasting the road pain because nobody takes any notice of them at all !
I tensed at 0:54, thinking the driver might edge out whilst you were one-handed.
Croydon is such a miserable place…
Is the suggestion that people in cars can't ever pull up at the side of the road if there's a bike lane? Because that ain't in the Highway Code – it's the parking restrictions as shown by lines and signs that take precedence.
What speed you doing in a area full of traffic
Thank you for demonstrating to my kids, how NOT to cycle in traffic.
Much appreciated! 🫣
Hi there, I wonder what camera you used to film this? the video quality is very good.
I tend not to bomb it down cycle lanes in case a driver pulls out or into a side street, had too many near misses
How could you see if there was anyone on the zebra crossing going that fast. Typical cyclist.
I would to see what will happen when you encounter a pedestrian.
The same here in France, bikelane is used as a parking for cars "but it's only for 2 min" 🤣🤣
That can’t be a cycle lane there is a cyclist in there 😂😂 and before you all start yes I know they can use the road too but when I cycle I prefer to use the cycle lane than the road as much safer but a lot choose not to?
And you are still going too fast relative to the cars, don't show any courtesy to cars struggling yo get out at junction. The wands prevent people moving aside for on-coming emergency vehicles or pass inside cars turning right. The problem always is cyclists too often ride too fast for the conditions.
The Scotland parking bill should finally be implemented sometime, in the next few months. This bill will make it an offence to park your car on the kerb of the pavement, or cause an obstruction. Fines will range from £70 for parking on the kerb, and £100 for causing an obstruction
This bill could equally be applied to other, to other spaces, where parking is not permitted, like cycle lanes, which is covered in the highway code
So hard too keep your cadence up with people blocking the bike lane.
The way you shout reminds me of Zero Enigma 😁
Are you a fan of his by any chance?
Why are you riding in the parking lane? Surely that white paint shows cars where to park…? (That's what happens near me, anyway)
Lost count of how many cars you passed! GB 🙂
Around where I live the pavement is designated as a cycle lane, so the cars park half on the road half on the pavement. White vans of course ignore double yellow, crossing zig zags, cycle lanes and any other signs or road markings.
