Frightening footage captures the moment a white van narrowly avoids a cyclist at a busy Edinburgh junction.
Sam Whyte, 35, was cycling to work on Thursday February 23, over the A700. While making his way down Earl Grey Street in Tollcross, a van suddenly cut in front of him.
The road, as the media manager explains, has its challenges as the cycle lane with bollards stops at a junction where cars can only make a left turn. However, while Sam checked over his shoulder as he approached the end of the cycle lane, the van next to him fails to slow down to let him pass and nearly catches him.
