So dangerous.

Traffic is a part of life when you’re driving in the city but some people don’t always let a bit of traffic get in their way when they want to get from A to B.

This footage was captured this week by José Jiménez, a cyclist in Dublin who has uploaded a number of videos of dangerous driving in Dublin, including one where a taxi driver is alleged to have deliberately knocked him off his bike.

He took the video of the vehicle skipping traffic on the footpath for an extended period of time before disappearing into the distance.

Jiménez said that he couldn’t manage to get the registration of the car on camera, otherwise he would have gone straight to the Gardaí with the footage.

The things you see on the road, eh?
