This Nasty-Looking Crash Punishes A Cyclist For Running A Red Light
We don’t necessarily have anything against cyling; only cyclists who don’t abide by the rules. This man in the Canadian city of Ottowa found out the hard way what happens when you flout the law.
Approaching from the left of shot, the rider flies out into the road at 90 degrees to the oncoming traffic, running a red light. The camera car, the driver of which was just trying out their new dash-cam for the first time, sees the bare-headed rider coming and slows to avoid a crash, but the unsighted driver on the right doesn’t. The impact sends the twisted bike flying to the opposite pavement while the cyclist picks himself up off the road, apparently not hurt too badly.
Via the description beneath the YouTube video upload, the driver implies that the footage should help the family in the car that hit the bike to sort any blame issues out once and for all.

I know the cyclist is wrong, but judging by the driver’s reaction time, he was probably texting
He wouldn’t need to react. It was a green light. Sure you could argue he didn’t slow down in time, but the car with the dashcam was most likely blocking his view of that portion of the crosswalk.
This looks legit cough cough
Ottowa? It’s Ottawa get it right
I hate these kind of cyclists… hopefully this serves as an examples for : red light runners / stop runners / IDGAF I’m a bicycle person who have priorit over any1 */ plain dumb idiot cyclist
*NO YOU DON’T have priority…
That bike won gold medal for distance jump!
I bet this canbeat song was playing:
‘’driving into the cyclist, is a new way to punish them,
I’m just driving into the cyclist, yes you wanna know, yes you wanna see’’
i have no problems with Bicyclist. only the ones who dont obey laws annoy me.
