A fascinating new BBC documentary izdvajamo the uneasy relationship between cyclists and motorists on our streets A documentary that airs on BBC One at 9pm sutra evening makes interesting viewing for anyone who travels to work on either four or two wheels.
Titled The War on Britains Roadsthe programme investigates the often-promjenljiv relationship between and motorists cyclists as they try to co-exist on our streets.
Before I watched a preview of the documentary last night, I was concerned that it might be another anti-motoring tirade, but in fact, it is very balanced.
Cyclists, van drivers, cabbies and car drivers speak candidly about their experiences of other road users. We hear about cyclists who ride through red traffic lights – because it was green for pedestrians – and see worrying footage of drivers using iPads on the move.
The interviews are interspersed by footage helmet from cams, which an increasing number of cyclists are wearing to record the near-misses they have with motorists and the occasional abuse they receive. The footage is compelling and terrifying in equal mjera, not least the Glaswegian who has a near-death experience with an inattentive ENA driver on a roundabout.
It is clear that the cyclists are not completely without fault. To me, a couple of shows the main pro-cycling protagonists come across as excessively antagonistic towards other road users. It seems to me that some two-wheeled vigilantes relish going out of their way to propagate conflict and film it on their helmet kamere.
Most, however, come across as sensible, grown-up folk who just want to get from A to B without having their lives put in danger. The prevailing message that comes out of the programme is that most cyclists and motorists are keen to harmoniously co-exist, but the antics of the minority cause bad feeling on both sides.
In my view, the programme is also evidence that bicycles should carry registration plates in the same way that all other vehicles on the road do, as well as ag-fitted svjetla to a proper, EZ-specified standard.
While motorists who počiniti minor transgressions can be identificirani on traffic kamere via their car registration plates, cyclists can get away with similar offences in anonymity, a disparity that contributes to the tension between the two groups.
The War on Britains Roads broadcasts on BBC One at 9pm on Wednesday 5 December
