A cyclist's perspective of Cambridge urban traffic

Visitors are welcome to leave comments - try to keep them impersonal. The idea is to present typical situations for review. Everyone has bad habits, makes mistakes and misjudgments which can be avoided including the cyclist behind the camera. Most of the issues are predictable and multifactorial. Comment on "the cyclist" or "the driver" and the road layout etc. Say what you think, what you would do and share your experience.

Cycling in Cambridge is actually very safe but what's surprising is quite how many risk issues occur in a short journey. Remarkably, almost invariably everybody copes very well and real problems are rare. Most of my videos are intended to show what might have happened if... 

Enjoy your ride!
