I think this guy should be reported for harassment!

However, I don't know who to report him to! Not sure if this was shot anywhere in London. What do you guys think?

Are the actions of this motorcyclist here coverd by Section 59 of the Police Reform Act?

    Don't know I guess police would be a good start since he overtook on chevrons, overtook on a turning lane, was blatantly speeding in places and showing aggressive behaviour to other road users. On top of that he is obviously a Cnut.
    I find a lot of motorcyclists like this, all righteous and banging on about 'think bike' whilst hammering around country lanes like they are on private race tracks and being all round smug gits. One of the reasons I don't ride a motorbike any more

    Definitely worth reporting, what a monumental knob.

    Jaysus, what a bell-end.

    I wonder if he noticed the bloomin roadworks sign helpfully positioned in the bike lane?

    Wow. He has anger issues. No reason for that abuse to the cyclists, of which neither in the wrong, or car drivers!

    :lol: What a complete tool. No need to report him, with his behaviour it's only a matter of time before he gives the wrong person the w@nker symbol - excellent wrist action btw. He looks like he's had a lot of practice.

    All good prejudicial comments begin with "I've got nothing against [insert group/faction], but........."

    He ought to learn how to use the road in a safe manner before condemning others.

    To be fair, I sent it to a cycling mate of mine. If he did that to him he'd be waking up in hospital with most of his motorbike up his arse.

    Conceited and clueless. A rare and entertaining combination.

    TBH I'm not sure I'd bother with the reporting. That might take him off his bike, and for my money I rather retribution came his way while he was on it.
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

    I'm interested to know how he knew the cyclist was Bi.

    I had an argument with a motorcyclist this morning; he cut across two lanes and into the cycle lane approaching Hammersmith Gyratory and I had to brake to avoid hitting him. As I filtered past I said 'Mirrors mate'.

    He started giving me grief about road tax and then when I said I did own a car he started calling me a 'donor'. I assume he was referring to my likelihood as a cyclist of being an organ donor. Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but aren't the statistics on my side as far as that goes?

    yep - A&E Doctors refer to motorcyclists as organ donors. Your guy was a muppet. They also call crash helmets useful receptacles to stop brains spilling everywhere.

    unfortunately for the motorcyclist once you post something online it doesn't go away quite as easily as you would wish...and for those that missed it...

    He also forgets that motorcycle helmets make excellent handholds, he's lucky nobody has twisted his neck off.
