Broadcaster and keen cyclist Jeremy Vine has sparked controversy after sharing a video of a car blocking a cycle lane on social media. The 56-year-old is known for his love of cycling and often shares videos to Twitter of his travels, which often cause huge debates between various road users.
In the video shared yesterday (April 4), Jeremy cycles across a junction in the rain, before encountering a white Renault which appears to be blocking the cycle lane. As he approaches the car, Jeremy wipes the rain from his camera and asks: "On what basis are you stopping here?"
Once the presenter has to manoeuvre himself past the vehicle, he taps on the car window, but the driver appears not to react and stays in the cycle lane with hazard lights on. The actions of both Jeremy, who said on Twitter 'I assumed this car had crashed', and the driver, have sparked mass debate on social media.
