Well I can only laugh at the comments from people who think the cyclist was faultless. The fact remains, the cyclist was a douche and goes looking for trouble if you watch his other videos. I still think the Taxi left him plenty of room. Agree to disagree I think.
I didnt watch the program and only watched the Youtube video linked above, cant see why the cyclist is at fault at all. The cab pulls level with him and starts moving toward the curb.
Even if in other videos he is "looking for trouble" at least in this one he isnt doing anything wrong at all.
Infact you notice the motorbike further up the road going the same speed as the cyclist pretty much, would the cab have done the same to that?
Why doesnt the cab just wait literally a second and pull in behind the cyclist to stop or turn or whatever he is doing.
And yes i've been driving 20 years as well as cycling.
EDIT
I must admit i wasnt watching it with sound on (at work) and the cyclist maybe doesnt help matters by tapping on the window/cab (not apparent with no sound!), still the cab does overtake move towards him so the cyclist doesnt know whats going to happen there. I'd still put it 95% cab, 5% cyclist fault. The cab driver wouldnt of done that if it was the motorcyclist (i would say).
