This might be the video that convinces me to get a rear camera on my bike.

No driver should ever be allowed to return behind the wheel after that behaviour. A true danger to the public.

I’m glad you’re safe! Since when has tapping on the car considered damage and such a burst of ego damage.. like people be like oh its just a nick from wall I hit but the second a non motorist taps a car.. all hell rages through them..

This wasn't my video, but it's one that clearly shows the benefit of having a rear camera. Without it, you'd miss a lot of context.

@Showroom7561 Wow! Complaining about you riding in the middle lane when there are parked cars, bus stops & turning traffic in the left lane.
Perhaps there should be some sort of training & testing before people are allowed to drive a car. There doesn't seem to be any at present <sarcasm>

Fucking wide boy. He is gonna try that shit with someone who wants to fight and get taught a lesson hopefully.
