[GVGT] Camcar video of Katong incident

[KnyghtRyder]

you totally disregard the fact that the cyclist should be aware of road conditions
and in the instance she notice the car overtook her and coming into filtering
she should have jolly well slowed down
but
beccos of road cyclist mentality and that...uhmmm... ENTITLEMENT
she forgotten to check her own safety
thereby suddenly having adrenalin rushed to go rage and bully the motorist

Not so easy for bicycle to slow down lah.

The car overtook the cyclist before filtering into the turning lane. The cyclist should behind the car at the turn.

That's your contention. I'm not so certain of that.

She think she is the fastest vehicle on the road so giving way is never on her mind

 

[Forever84]

oh sweet looking.

Ok. Cyclist is at fault.

Oh wow I agree

with face like this she is innocent

the King Kong cyclist should reflect

 

[howyoulikethat]

should just drive the cyclist out to ECP

The vision of the camera overtakes the bicycle .. need to account for the length of the car and the Blindspot of the camera... I don't think the margin was as wide as you say..

Plus don't forget that the car also slowed down while checking the oncoming traffic from the right while completing the turn.. the bike might have been forced to e-brake to avoid colliding with the car then..

LOL, objects tend to appear nearer in a car camera footage, those who drives know this.

Both of them approaching a junction, they both have to slow down, You mean the cyclist don;'t need to slow down and just chiong out?

We drive daily, many times other motorist cut into our lane and we have to jam brake, does it mean we have to block the car and jump up their bonnet too? Stop defending her, you guys are just making yourself look silly.

 

[curahee]

Actually some car honked her when she tried to reverse.
The whole situation was too much stress for her to handle.

cars honk her, cooking class waiting for her, in front one mad gal banging her car and refuse to move... really all come together at the same time

Then dont cycle on the road lah. Dont justify for the sake of sprouting nonsense lah.
Sibei retarded, even exercise patience have to use common sense.

when i see old folks crossing the road slowly, i believe most of the motorist will wait for them. That is common sense they have slower reaction.
A retarded that cant cycle and doesnt know the rules of the road. Knn

if the cyclist wants to go straight, she should look out for vehicles and signal with the hand. It takes courage and experience to cycle on the road. Dunno or dont care about rules of cycling on the road, then dont blame others like chao karen. The driver is not professor X that can read mind.

it the eyes of the law, both committed traffic offences. regardless, both lose lose situation.

Sometimes, better to take a step back, wave hand, smile and move on.....

Most likely outcome...

cyclist - fine for obstructing traffic
Driver - fine and ban for dangerous driving for inching the car towards, drive off with someone holding onto the car.

If such an incident happen to motorist (someone jump onto the bonnet), never drive off, straight away put car to park, pull up hand brake and call the cops...... there are video evident .....

but again, if in malaysia, remember do not stop

Most importantly, driver is fully aware her car cam is recording. The cyclist lacks brain power.

I'm not saying you wrong
but at the speed, slowing down is manageable
not asking to come to a stand still

And slowing down is easily witness with road cyclist drafting buses and lorries and other packs
changes in speed and reflexes i've seen
Wow...
Only being unaware of road conditions and nonchalance for own safety will allow danger in

Mis-facts.
Driver driving forward.
Cyclist climb on top of bonnet.

Not the other way around.

Are you another wannabe in spandex who think you are some special breed that knows how to cycle with 2 wheels but attend RT during weekdays?

My current vintage MTB takes forever to slow down.
No Magura brakes.
Only some no-name, 35 year-old brakes that still screeches when it works.
Certainly no match for ABS cars/bikes with Brembos!

 

[CanIsayNo]

my guess is the older woman drove to get somewhere to buy things etc, the cyclist rode for her weekly leisure ride? And then bring her entitled mindset and strong feminist upbringing(probably, i'm assuming cos why not?) which puts her in a situation where she feels she needs to prove something(ego). There is nothing to prove la. No one will say you're not a strong independent woman if you don't confront the driver so stupidly like that. And then when sh1t happens, you can see how traumatised she is at the end.. looks like she's not so tough after all

 

[maikumgong]

From what I saw. X.26-x.27 got some parts cut out. Maybe that explains something about how it doesn't connect well through some parts of vid.

Some parts look quite weird but I dont want to jump into comclusion.

 

[batdow]

Please share their photos so we can decide wisely who to support

 

[mocax]

why must support? just send both to jail....

 

[Whispers]

She is a damn scary driver, won't support her too. Equally dangerous her driving. That speed at that left turn is damn fast. When you are driving you won't feel it but as a person beside, you would curse and swear at that car too.

that speed is fast? cmon man, r u trying to manage optics here? if fast, that cyclist would have been thrown off the car

Hmm, I thought objects tend to appear further in a dashcam video.
