Ever felt like you’re the only sane person on the road? Dubliner Rob Brannigan shot a video about the dangers faced by bikers every day. Bus drivers not looking, people texting on mobiles, women applying their make-up etc. Brannigen said to MCN: “There were 3 main motivations for shooting the video: firstly, I nearly got taken out at the first clip junction by a red light jumper. Secondly, a few weeks later a guy on my nearside nearly got taken out by a car that stopped two inches from him. Thirdly – and most importantly – I had a chat with a guy I never met before when I was coming out of hospital for a non-biking injury… he’d lost a leg nine months previously because a lady jumped a red light and took him out.”
