Watch as cyclist who refuses to move over for a truck and lashes out is rammed by the driver – whose side are you on?
A SHOCKING video shows the moment a truck driver loses it with a cyclist and forces him off the road.
The video, uploaded to YouTube on the Singaporean SG Road Vigilante channel in 2018, is a reminder that road rage between cars and cyclists can be extremely dangerous.
The video is shot using a dash cam, but shows the camera’s rear view from behind a car in traffic.
It starts with the camera car making its way through traffic until a couple of cyclists come into view on the right hand side.
Behind the camera car is a blue truck, which is held up by the cyclists riding side-by-side.
The camera car then rolls to a stop at some lights and the cyclist makes sure he’s right in front of the truck, clearly trying to aggravate the driver.

As the lights change and the traffic begins to move off, the cyclist remains out in the lane, blocking the truck’s progress.
The truck driver becomes frustrated and drives very close to the cyclist, who lashes out and hits the truck with his elbow knocking off what looks to be a mirror.
That’s when things turn ugly – the truck driver has had enough and steers left violently into the cyclist.
The cyclist is pushed off the road and into the verge, rolling off his bike.

But whose side are you on? The truck driver’s actions are terrible, but did the cyclist ask for it after aggravating the situation and lashing out?

“The cyclist fully deserves the reaction from the lorry! Get these cycling idiots off our roads, if not charge them the same road tax as any bikers using public roads.”

While Joshua Malamion said: “Not defending the cyclist (cus he’s the reason why us cyclists are hated) but the lorry driver shouldn’t have done that.
“I guess it could have been as an instinctive reaction, but if it weren’t, he should have just reported the damn cyclist for being an *ss and vandalising his vehicle.
“Life is precious to all of us.”
