Post Your Dash Cam Footage

After one week my Mrs asked me to stop showing videos from my cycle rides to and from work and after two months I gave up myself.
Incidents were a daily occurrence and I can honestly say none of them were my fault.

I've got a couple of fun ones to upload regarding cyclists - the one earlier was not nice at all - I kind of froze for a split second it was so unexpected - if it wasn't for the fact no one was coming the other way doubt I could have stopped in time to miss them. Not really anyone at fault but in both cases the cyclists put themselves in a very bad position.
 
No he came up behind me out of no where so I pulled back into lane one and before I knew it he was up my left side already.

Seen him a few times over a couple of weeks at around the same time down that road weaving in and out of traffic like that.

I'm sure this will go down like a lead balloon on here, but yours is a very typical dashcam owner video for me. He was driving like a complete idiot, no doubt, but nobody "comes out of nowhere". What you mean is that you weren't paying full attention so you didn't see him flying up behind you. You also kept moving over even when it was pretty obvious what he was doing.

To make things clear, I probably wouldn't have noticed him flying up behind either, and I've no doubt you're a better driver than me. If there was an accident, the insurance company would find him at fault and you not at fault, and rightly so. But in the vast majority of these situations, there's one person driving like an idiot, and a dashcam driver who at best is like you and simply doesn't do everything possible to avoid the issue, but at worst actively tries to turn a close call into an accident.
 
He was driving like a bell in the rain, but the video doesn’t tell the whole story.
Perhaps you were hogging the fast Lane and he was just as frustrated at your bad driving.
No accident thankfully :)
