Cycle Lane still.JPGVideo: Cycle Lane - a short comedy from teens on BFI Film Academy scheme
A team of 16-19-year-olds on the BFI Film Academy scheme, based in Dorset, have taken a confrontation between a motorist and a cyclist as the subject of a short comedy called Cycle Lane that has been shown at two film festivals in the United States.
Produced in partnership with White Lantern Film and clocking in at just under 4 minutes, we won't give too much away other than to share the synopsis, which reads: "Running late for a job interview, the last thing Christian wants is a heated argument with a frustrated cyclist ... "
Now released online through Vimeo, the short film has been screened at the Phillips Academy Interscholastic Film Festival in Andover, Massachusetts and the Kalamazoo Bicycle Film Festival in Michigan.
Watch it here - and if you're watching at work, stick some headphones on, there's the odd f-word ...
Cycle Lane - Full Film 2017 (Ben Waugh, Rod Lewis) from Cycle Lane on Vimeo.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

I love the way the Post front page headline puts the focus on the bus driver losing his job rather than the scooter rider almost dying.

Pretty realistic confrontation from my experiences.
Not sure about the order of arrival later on though!
Likewise, not entirely unpredictable, but nevertheless worth showing to all potential drivers when they turn up for their written test.
Love it.
Could see where it was going a mile off, possibly because I've read the exact same story before here on road.cc
I remember that too! That's why I have stopped effin and jeffin and started blowing kisses and shouting cooee in a Frank Spencer style.
