Very poor close overtake by the driver of PE18PRE. Didn't give nearly enough space for the cyclist so driving without due care and attention.

It's OK, it wasn't a close pass! Derbyshire Constabulary say no action to be taken - obviously it's totally alright for cyclists to be overtaken like this by HGVs.
Yes, there was a child on the tandem during this.
Video shows green HGV passing within ~0.5m of cycle

Dear Mr Silly Bollocks, because you passed me so dangerously on a roundabout where there was an additional lane you could have used, you have been reported. In reporting, I found the car is SORN, not MOT'd and therefore not insured... oh dear

What a lovely morning for a ride but not to experience the most dangerous and scary of my very nearly extinguished life. No attempt to slow and then shouted abuse at me. I really hope it's a big fat fine and points. Scum!

Thanks for playing chicken with me and forcing me to jump onto the verge. 3.2T of driving straight at me was not a transaction I wanted to be on the wrong side of Perhaps the imminent fine will stop you being such an obnoxious, dangerous bully?

This driver has accepted a charge of without due care and attention Zero consideration for other road users apart from herself – three penalty points and a fine of £100. Maybe the next time she will think to give a bit more room. Stephen Nolan 👍

In the video he does look that close.. but I’d say that’s the closest a car has been by me so far.. And it had to be my favourite model of car

Did she even see the cyclist?
Makes no effort to give space and ends up with a letter asking her to confirm who was driving the car so they can be processed for careless driving.
Probably gets a driving course. Please be careful.

'Family' people in their big people carriers with no care for cyclists who have little to protect themselves other than a helmet and their wits.
This Citroen driver gets a Notice of Intended Prosecution = a course, a fine with points or a court challenge.

St Kenelms Pass near Brum is one of my favourite hills to climb (when I'm in good shape) but it's one I now avoid when the weather is nice. It gets very busy and the number of close calls like this increase massively. Its a shame as its a beautiful area

This Tiguan driver sees the car in front give space but decides they don't need to take care around a vulnerable road user.
Reported.
Better this than they kill or injure someone.
What punishment is suitable?

Close pass in roadworks, this is the reason my children refuse to learn to ride a bike, 'you keep getting hit by cars Daddy!'
