Fair play nei confronti dell’autista dell’autobus affinché la consapevolezza della situazione si fermi. Poteva andare molto peggio.
Ho anche corretto l’ora sulla mia dash cam.

where did that cyclist even come from?
Cyclists get enough hate, so I try not to contribute, because I’m well aware the infrastructure and car-culture doesn’t respect that mode of transportation in so many ways.
But let me tell you as a new driver who didn’t realize this before… between Ireland’s light levels during winter, the infrastructure, the weather and the post-2020-make-cars-with-their-fecking-perma-highbeam-type-LED-lights, as a cyclist you are straight-up _invisible_ to me without a front light, back light and the additional reflective gear on your person and/or bicycle.
The odds aren’t in your favour, please compensate by spending 25 quid on a full kit that lets me see you and respond to your presence on the road correctly/safely.
Cyclist has lights at least. I’d advocate for reflective clothing too.
A helmet wont help a lot if your run over by a bus though.
Drivers: be alert for flashing lights on bikes
I’ve a had a few near misses already this autumn with cyclists cosplaying as ninjas..
That guy is lucky to be alive.
Whenever I cycle on the road I don’t go out without at least two flashing rear lights, front light and hi-vis. It’s silly not to.
I do appreciate cyclists being visible when I’m in the car too. It makes it much easier to be courteous to them when I can actually see them.
Cyclists should of course be as visible as possible. But, drivers need to always be vigilant, too.
Typical Galway cyclist/pedestrian. Saunter out onto the road crossing oncoming traffic … be grand.
Anyone else think; what’s OP talking about? The dude has a rear flashing light if he missed him he’s blind….
Three watches later I saw the other guy 😅
Took me ages to see, cause I looked at the cyclist to the left. Now I see it. That person was very lucky indeed. 😳
I cycle back roads and it’s hairy enough. Wouldn’t be chancing city streets. Was in Manchester there a few weeks ago and streets full of uber eats cyclists absolutely risking their lives for probably not near enough pay. Not a bit of reflective gear or lights on them.
Pissing raining in Galway? Some shpot for the oul rain
As a cyclist (not by choice but from necessity cycling in to get a train to college) I can feel the inconvenience to drivers when they speed past me with an inch of clearance on an 80kph road. I wear my high vis and helmet and keep almost on top of the ditch when I can, but the amount of drivers who can’t be bothered to spare a second of their trip to slow down or wait for a chance to overtake and just brush past me is insane. Im not on that road by choice, it’s my only way at the moment of getting to a place I need to be.
