I can’t blame the driver for that. It’s just a shockingly bad design. The driver did nothing wrong, it’s just a totally stupid design from the start.
The driver did cut in slightly early, but I'd put the onus on the cyclist to anticipate the pinch and slow down in time. I just hope that they fix that design before someone gets hurt.
It's hard to be certain, but it looks like the driver was avoiding oncoming traffic, and the cyclist hadn't overtaken, he was still to the left of the car, and if he knew about the end of the cycle lane, it was 99% his fault not the driver.
That said, the designer needs staking out covered with honey on an anthill of particularly voracious stinging ants. About average for the UK, so perhaps the designer emigrated from here.
Agreed, but I'd say that whoever approved the design needs to be staked out and covered in multi-colour cockroaches too.
