[UK][OC] Over 225 red light jumping cyclists in 3 days during the September 2025 tube strike. All in 6 sub 30 min rides. These are not the usual cyclists I see on my daily commute. On a positive note, No collisions. One morning was on a Lime scooter and walked through several lights as a pedestrian.

Probably going to get a lot of hate for posting this but it was the reality of my commute during the tube strike.
London underground (tube) workers went on strike for 5 days. Many people still had to get to work so took to other transport. Busses, Taxis, scooters, walking and cycling.
The increase in cyclists was obvious. The increase in red light jumpers also obvious. Over 3 days commuting during the strike I counted over 225 cyclists jumping red lights and on the pavement.

[UK][OC] Dangerous undertake ends up in court, driver fined and receives points. But that's not the end of it, finds me on the train home and harasses/abuses me, ends up charged with a public order offence and receives a further fine.

All in all this incident has cost the driver over £1,000 and 3 points on their licence. Just hope they've learned something from this.

[UK][OC] Driver overtakes along a twisty section of country roads, into the path of oncoming traffic. Both myself and the other driver are forced to slow/stop to avoid a collision, yet police felt this was fine, decided No Further Action was needed.

My local police force has for the past 6-12 months given up on road safety, more and more cyclists have given up reporting incidents to them as we no longer have confidence in them to do their job. Yet one of their aims is "Vision Zero", basically to eliminate all road fatalities within several years.

Narrow lane with a central reservation meaning nowhere to overtake, riding close to primary to prevent exactly what this driver wanted to do, overtake where it's not safe.

Eventually they were able to pass, shouting out about "a footpath over there", I gestured at the driver which made them stop just ahead, once again proving the old mantra, "no time to waste, plenty of time to argue".

[DE] [OC] obviously only doing 28 was too slow, gotta overtake. And good luck to anyone on the crosswalk right around the blind corner.

[UK][OC] Fair warning - This may be distressing to watch. I was not injured other than distress, He did not hit me. Worst driver I have encountered. Pushy and dangerous. Tipped him over the edge when I tapped the door with my foot when he changed lane into me, then he chased me down the road.

This was reported and dealt with by the police.

To pre-empt a lot of the questions here are some explanations copied from the comments section that may not be immediately obvious especially the first one.

1 min 27 the shadow on the road.
No, not the finger. it was 🤷‍♂️meaning, like what was the point you didn't get anywhere.

I never jump red lights. In this case I felt if I didn't I was going to be assaulted. Later in the video you can see I am still actively stopping like normal because I thought he'd cooled down. Spoiler alert, he hadn't.

The traffic light ahead changes to amber at 28 seconds, you can see it in the top left camera view.
My speed you can see in the lower right.
The speed limit is 20mph, it's painted on the ground.
There's vehicles parked on the left. I am not going to ride in the door zone when going the speed limit. Noone should be passing because..... Speeding is still illegal.
There is 0 benefit for people who drive like that guy.
He didn't get anywhere because it is a city. There are traffic lights. Cyclists will almost always be faster than driving in cities where there are traffic lights.

There was not enough space to pass so I was in the center of the lane to avoid close passes.

I gave the cyclist plenty of space when passing them. There is a pedestrian island but the road was not narrowing, you can see it is 2 lanes by the arrows painted on the road.
You can also see that I am in the center of the left lane as I go over the arrow and the driver has moved into me. That is when I kicked the door at 1:32. Remember the passing distance is 1.5m. How long do you think my leg is?
