A shocking video showing a small truck repeatedly ramming a moving cyclist until they fall off their bike has outraged the cycling community and renewed calls for drivers to respect other road users. Morgan said sadly some motorists did not accept that cyclists had an equal right to use the road. In the video, a light goods Isuzu truck can be seen driving closely behind the cyclist, with the cab bumping the rear wheel several times before it strikes it so hard the bike crashes. Most people who ride a bike on the street have encountered poor driving or aggressive driving or bullying from other road users. A person was charged with dangerous driving causing injury over the incident and will reappear in the Christchurch District Court.
