Radio and television show host Jeremy Vine has sparked a debate after sharing video of a car turning across a cycle lane that he was cycling in. The Channel 5 and Radio 2 lunchtime host shared footage from the camera he wears while cycling showing a car indicating to turn left then turning across the cycle lane forcing Vine to bring himself to a sudden stop.
The clip divided opinion, with lots incorrectly saying that the driver was driving correctly and that Vine is to blame. But a detective superintendent left no room for doubt, laying down the rules and saying "there should be no need to debate this".
Among those with very strong views on the video was former Welsh professional boxer Enzo Maccarinelli, who said Vine is "the danger, not the driver". He added: "Trying to get people in trouble cos he’s in public eye, he’s the danger not driver. Saying driver indicated six yards before turning which is false. He has more than enough time to stop and slow down. A prick of a man trying to embarrass someone on social media whose done no wrong."
