We freely admit that here at road.cc towers, we sometimes wonder exactly how to categorise incidents shown in videos submitted by our readers to the Near Miss of the Day feature – was it a close pass, did the motorist cut the cyclist up, or was the person behind the steering wheel simply one of those who Must. Get. In. Front – also known as MGIF – of the person on the bike?

Well, this one has a bit of everything, so let’s congratulate the motorist for doing the hat-trick … please contact us on info@road.cc to contact your, um, match ball.

Bob, the road.cc rider who sent in the clip, said: “A typical ‘must get in front’ driver, taken today in Altrincham, Greater Manchester.

“Hard to tell if it counts as a cut-up, close pass, or a must get in-front. Perhaps it is all three.

He added: “Just a good job he didn’t stop where he pulled in.”
