STOMPer Michael sent in a video of a cyclist who toyed with danger by riding closely behind a big lorry with a full load on its back.
The 28-second video, originally uploaded on facebook, shows the male cyclist following closely behind the right-rear side of the lorry, and potentially putting himself in danger if the lorry driver were to jam on the brakes suddenly.
According to comments left by the netizen who uploaded the video, he came across this cyclist along Nicoll Highway and was concerned for his well-being, asking in a description accompanying the clip: "What will happen if there is an accident?"
It is unknown when the netizen came across this cyclist though the video was uploaded onto the social networking site on Saturday morning (Oct 12).
In his report, the STOMPer wrote:
"It will be good to feature this video of a guy cycling on the highway.
"I hope this video can spread the message also that cycling on major roads like expressways is not allowed as well."
This is the second incident related to the conduct of cyclists on the road this week, after another rider was caught on video beating a red light, and attempting to provoke a driver into a confrontation.
