Driver did not look. Cycle law should be of use here. Hope the guy is OK. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242498 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 17:15:12 +0000 I were right about that saddle 242498@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That squealing/shouting made my genitals retract. Terrifying. And the situation seemed so anodyne and the rider didn't put a wheel wrong. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242482 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 13:44:30 +0000 Nelly 242482@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That was stomach churning stuff. Had to switch off.</p> <p>Witnesses clearly important, cant quite work out why plod would not investigate? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242465 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:26:48 +0000 minus six 242465@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Online Complaint Form</p> <p><a href="https://www.scotland.police.uk/secureforms/police-complaints/" rel="nofollow">https://www.scotland.police.uk/secureforms/police-complaints/</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242464 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 11:22:03 +0000 wishicouldgofaster 242464@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>As I said on another thread complain to the police quoting the road traffic law at them. Might be an idea to shame them into action by going to the press if they still don't bother. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242461 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 10:41:18 +0000 minus six 242461@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've been cut up by motorists at this location in exactly the same fashion many, many, many times. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242460 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 10:40:25 +0000 himupstairs 242460@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Presumably this.. <a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17422" rel="nofollow">http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17422</a></p> <p>I've seen the same thing happen in broad daylight too. Driver drove straight across in front of a bike heading north, seemingly without looking. The cyclist left quite an impression on the back door of the car, and had a nasty graze on his forehead.</p> <p>That junction is terrible. I cycle through it every day heading east, and there are always drivers running red lights or cutting across others. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242458 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 10:21:33 +0000 Frenchy 242458@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><em>Although the driver drove straight at me, didn't indicate and was clearly paying no attention whatsoever the police can't or won't check their phone and although early days no action has been taken against the driver. One can only hope.</em></p> <p>!!!</p> <p>His civil case will be open and shut, but that's just not enough. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=17425#post-242457 Thu, 09 Feb 2017 10:05:59 +0000 HankChief 242457@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="https://youtu.be/L_RRdbbATkY" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/L_RRdbbATkY</a></p> <p>Not good.
