| 647 | This morning while riding my ebike with my two children (aged 9 and 6), I once again had a car accelerate aggressively and go completely on the other side of the road to overtake on Russell Terrace, as they drive to the top of the hill and over the blind summit on the junction with Herald St. It would only take a car driving south and it would either be a terrible head-on crash OR, as I suspect, the overtaking car would veer left to take out me and my kids riding on my bike. I know it's a narrow road, but this is a pretty regular occurrence and it would be a terrible accident if/when someone is coming the other way. Any advice on how to highlight this issue and has anyone else had the same happen to them? Oh and after the car passed me and returned the left lane (well over the hill), they put on their hazards to signify their apparent annoyance at me for.... riding a bike? When we stopped at the lights in Newtown, I pulled up next to their window to explain how dangerous it was to overtake on a blind summit (calmly as had my kids with me!). They refused to look at me and instead took out their phone to attempt to take a photo of me and my two children. Eugh. |

| 209 | Observed a car overtake a bicycle. Bike was following Victoria street towards Brooklyn hill. Car in left hand lane overtook and then turned left into Webb st cutting off cyclist.

| 499 | Turning right into Tasman street from John street, sitting in the right turn lane and someone travelling Eastbound along John (fast) overtook slowing traffic such that they were driving straight at me.

| 559 | This is an incident I witnessed (as a pedestrian) but was not involved in. A car attempted to back out of angle parking space between the bus stop on the Parade near shops/ Medway street and backed into a car travelling past the Medway street intersection, travelling North. Both were at low speeds due to the amount of traffic. After the accident, the car travelling north attempted to stop to talk to reversing driver but decided to just stop in the traffic flow (but as far left as she could) and put hazard lights on. This meant that traffic behind (including at least 3 cyclists) was required to pull into the opposite Yu traffic lane to pass at this busy street. |

| 248 | Driving down Lachlan Ave approaching Queens Drive intersection a car failed to stop at the stop sign and continued to pull out in front of me. I had to perform a very scary emergency stop.
