Police Car driver ignores the code code: NZ Road Code States, “•Hazards like parked cars, potholes, glass, litter and opening car doors may cause cyclists to veer off-line and move into your path. Because of this, give cyclists plenty of room when passing them. Ideally, allow at least 1.5 metres between you and the cyclist.” Naturally you can, and should, give more than the minimum for added safety. It does not get much more ideal than having another lane to use. Still Dano was in the passenger seat so I guess the driver got booked 😉 Camera is a ContourHD 1080p in 135 degree mode (quite a wide angle) think wide angle wing mirror effect, so the car looks further away than it is, its about 0.8 meters clear. But I guess the driver is so awesome he/she could react if I had a blow out etc.
