"Fietser".... happiest cycling, in 'normal clothes'. Cargo bike in South Wales. Ban SUVs!
It really is. Those of us riding EPACs and just getting to work, getting kids around by bike etc are as against these awful things as everyone else. I dont want to be associated with this sort of terrible event or the horrible motorbikes that people are using that cause incidents like this!

Also mentions a pillion passenger so I agree..... it'll be an illegal electric motorbike. Awful story and I really hope the baby is OK

You couldn't make it up!

People on bikes are constantly told to be grateful for whatever we've already got, aren't we?

"Already has a bike lane" pointing to the edge of a road, with a taxi partially driving in it 😬

No i think the term used when white people do it is 'legitimate concerns'

Glad to see the article at least reports some of the costs that are so often ignored.
6mnths tho &a very small fine 🤦‍♀️

He should be made to pay for all damage,reimburse ppls train tickets &totally banned from driving.

Isn't it also an offence to have an out of control dog???? 🤔

I totally get this - many of us in the UK have been dealing with the fallout of Brexit for the last decade despite not voting for it, despising everything it stands for & knowing how it would turn out.
You have my sympathies where being 'tarred with the same brush' is concerned!

This is a good point, thank you. I'll make sure to take care of myself when watching footage x
January 23, 2026 at 7:34 AM
Thank you! Can't believe I'm having to do this on 20mph roads on a village, with a child clearly sat on the back.

But here we are 🤷‍♀️

Sadly I'm 18 months into having a pass pixi. It does some times make a difference I'm sure, but I honestly think because its local school in a village, people know me and know I dont have a camera!
January 22, 2026 at 2:41 PM
Its just making me really sad that I've actually had to do this 😞

All I want is to have nice, safe bike rides.

But when OTHER PARENTS from my child's school are close passing at 40mph on a 20mph road, cutting me up, going the wrong side of traffic islands to get round me etc, it clearly is time 😢

Ah I think this might be my answer thank you!
Others have suggested a card reader or connecting to a laptop etc, but I don't have anything other than my phone because I can do everything on that! So something with WiFi and an app I think is best for me

Yeah I think the intent of what I said was misunderstood,perhaps I wasn't clear.

My point wasn't that I'm suggesting everyone 'just walk' or cycle etc

My point was that people perceive its ok to say it in some circumstances (as they did to you on FB), & not in others (dont park on the pavement).

The irony there being that you need planning permission to safely store your bike, but your car you're just allowed to leave wherever.....
January 13, 2026 at 3:45 PM
I love that in the last screenshot, someone has clearly suggested you use a bath.

But they go mad if anyone suggests they use their legs (or a bike) instead of their car because you're "taking away their choice"!

They just don't get it do they?!
January 13, 2026 at 3:43 PM
Quite frankly, even if they have to park miles away, its their responsibility. Its nobody else's problem.

If you bought a sofa that didnt fit in your living room, you couldn't then make it everyone else's problem. The same should absolutely be enforced with cars.
January 13, 2026 at 2:56 PM
So they basically drive the same as a human then 🤷‍♀️
January 13, 2026 at 10:27 AM
Totally agree. The 20mph limit caused such an uproar etc etc that they should have just implemented a full pavement ban and put in a load of segregated cycle lanes at the same time. Weather 1 storm all in one go!

This is such a wonderful story! I'm so glad you love it, i wouldn't be without mine.

I know you think you've done the 'wrong thing' eating it but... it has no preservatives in it ..... so won't last more than a day or so. You're preventing food waste by eating it all! 😆
