By definition, the videos in our Near Miss of the Day series feature examples of poor driving – but there should be a special award for the type of stupidity displayed by this overtaking cyclists participating in a sportive in Northern Ireland – and having to brake to a halt to avoid hitting another car head-on.

It happened during yesterday’s Tour of Strangford in County Down, a charity sportive organised by Ards Cycling Club (link is external) and featuring 80 and 50 mile routes around Strangford Lough, the largest sea inlet in Britain and Ireland.

The clip was sent to us by road.cc reader Paul, who described the driver as “an absolute moron” – it’s hard not to agree with that.

I think you need to read the (motorist) Highway Code. Rule 1 clearly states cyclists MUST be overtaken IMMEDIATELY.
Every second you wait behind a cyclist will cause your penis to shrink by 1mm.

What is a "sportive"?

Whatever it is, in what way does it mean that normal people are
forbidden to use the highway?

So you 'think' the motorist did nothing wrong?
The subsidised road user was welcome to use roads paid for by cyclists provided it complies with the conditions of it's licence.
I am sure even you will agree this overtake was dangerous and endangered the lives of both the paying road users and the oncoming subsidised road user..
