Near Miss of the Day 368: Mr Angry of Berkshire (+ video)

Today's offering in our Near Miss of the Day series highlights how people who perhaps are mild-mannered should you encounter them in any other circumstances undergo a personality change once behind the wheel of a car.

The footage was filmed by road.cc reader Stephen, who told us: "A close encounter with a Mr Angry of Berkshire insisting I use the cycle path.

"This was on the A4 between Maidenhead and Slough, my regular commute.

"He was determined to get in front, but unfortunately I didn't get his registration number."

> Near Miss of the Day turns 100 - Why do we do the feature and what have we learnt from it?

Over the years road.cc has reported on literally hundreds of close passes and near misses involving badly driven vehicles from every corner of the country – so many, in fact, that we’ve decided to turn the phenomenon into a regular feature on the site. One day hopefully we will run out of close passes and near misses to report on, but until that happy day arrives, Near Miss of the Day will keep rolling on.

If you’ve caught on camera a close encounter of the uncomfortable kind with another road user that you’d like to share with the wider cycling community please send it to us at info [at] road.cc or send us a message via the road.cc Facebook page.

If the video is on YouTube, please send us a link, if not we can add any footage you supply to our YouTube channel as an unlisted video (so it won't show up on searches).

Please also let us know whether you contacted the police and if so what their reaction was, as well as the reaction of the vehicle operator if it was a bus, lorry or van with company markings etc.
