Revolting footage shows an enraged cyclist spit at a father driving with
his children in the car.
The 48-second clip, filmed in the UK by the motorist, shows the
bike-rider yelling obscenities at him during the shocking confrontation.
He then spits on the car window and cycles off, continuing to hurl abuse
at the driver as he rides away.

Pity there is no footage of what led up to this. The only thing we can conclude is the motorist picked up his vehicle and set it down half on the footway, half on the cyclepath.

The general public have a very poor image of cyclists, and incidents
like this just confirm it.

I think you've somewhat overgeneralised from /your/ (or should I say the
DM's) view to /everyone/.

ask the man in the street, most will add 'bloody' to the word cyclists.

I really could not give a stuff.
I have no fucking interest in looking good in YOUR eyes.
After all I ride a bicycle.
And we all know what YOU think of bicyclists. You think they are the
fuckwitted pits of humanity.
And because it is YOU who think that, that is an extremely great
compliment.
We must be doing something right.

All tyrannies need a scapegoat for the unwashed masses to focus their hatred on. Cyclists are currently it. At one time single mothers were the cause of all societies ills.
We live in a police state and this sort of bigotry only helps those in charge.

No it doesn't. It shows spit on the car. I expect it can be washed off.

"He gave way to the cyclist without realising there was not enough space
for him to get past on his bike."

In other words, he overtook, saw a space and slammmed the brake on right
in the cyclist's face.
