ID/Link Date of incident What happened? Location Type Situation
220 Pedestrian walked down centre of cycleway making no effort to walk to the pedstrian footpath on hutt road, i was heading south as was the pedestrian so had her back to me. I kept left of her but slowed just in case she moved towards the footpath. A cyclist heading north which she saw made her quickly move into my line so I had to take evasive action to move around her right, directly inline with the northbound cyclist. He skidded past and I got very clise to her as anymore to the right we would have collided. Pedestrian blocked the view and took most of the focus from the other cyclists as she was unpredictable in what she would do. Myself and the other cyclist stopped and looked back to make all was ok then carried on. -41.261323513932, 174.7886882 Bicycle Other (please add information in the textarea below)
219 illegally parked Taxi turned in to the road suddenly (from being parked in illegal loading zone and getting a fine from a parking Marshall) without indicating and hit me off my bike with the nose of his car. He proceeded without stopping - returned after 10 minutes - said he went to look for legal parking. Broken bent bike and front shock and cracked helmet. No assistance from the police - had to carry my bike (could not push it was bent) to the police station (with head injuries and other bumps and bruises) after waiting for the police to arrive for 20 minutes. -41.282298713942, 174.7755975 Bicycle Vehicle pulls out or across cyclist
218 Was walking in Johnston hill walking tracks and stopped as myself and an elderly gentlemen thought we heard some tree cutting noises, (there has been illegal tree felling in the area).
I took out my camera as a precaution . All of a sudden a mountain biker came down the track at high speed nearly hitting us. This all caught on camera. 		-41.274788760777, 174.74299697307 Pedestrian
217 Cars waiting to turn left into Vivian street blocking cycle lane forcing bikes out into traffic lane. Lucky nice bus driver let me in. This happens most times when using Victoria Street Cycle lane just before 5pm -41.293731085836, 174.77318519707 Bicycle Cyclist's way blocked (by other road users, road conditions, etc.)
216 Very dangerous near miss by a extreme downhill mountain biker illegally riding. This is common on the hill on the walking only tracks which are very steep (over 30 degree angle). -41.271375695573, 174.7745299108 Pedestrian
215 Incident at the lights where a car ran a red arrow and cut me off. Car was travelling North along the one way st of Cumberland St and was turning right into St Andrew St. There are lights at this intersection to stop cars for cyclists but cars more often than not ignore it and cut the cyclists off. A very dangerous intersection. This intersection and the way the cars ignore their red arrow will either kill or seriously injust a cyclist. -45.872492963187, 170.50790544475 Bicycle Vehicle pulls out or across cyclist
214 I was cycling in the right lane, to prepare to turn right. The traffic light ahead was red. A driver then undertook me on the left, straddling both lanes, before cutting back into my lane requiring me to swerve onto the flush median to avoid him. -41.278806965932, 174.7796297226 Bicycle Problematic pass (usually too close)
213 Near Miss (NEAR FATALITY!)
Cycling NW Bikeway crossing Lincoln Rd from W to E. Saw Green Cycle and proceeded to cross, not realising that the green was not for the slip road. Car misses my front wheel by a few cm. He was travelling around 80km/hr.
If I had been 1 sec earlier I would have been dead.
Bad intersection design, doesn't comply with road to zero. 		-36.84900317208, 174.63141217329 Bicycle Other (please add information in the textarea below)
211 Driver in white van passed us (two cyclists) far too closely entering the wide bend, then cut back abruptly in front of us to move back into left lane. The pass could have been completed safely by waiting just 5 - 10 seconds until we had passed around the bend. -41.304381818178, 174.81549756803 Bicycle Problematic pass (usually too close)
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. It was close. Idiot!

That block of Victoria street is ridiculously unsafe. Cycle lane ends at Karo drive, and dumps cyclists to a lane with drivers splitting two directions

203 Approaching Campbell Rd from Onehunga Mall, moved to the centre of the lane to go straight ahead at the roundabout to Cornwall Park. Car squeezes past me and does a left hook into Campbell Rd. Apparently it was my fault for not indicating and riding in the middle of the road. Apart from the fact that I was legally "taking the lane" and that you are not meant to signal when going straight at a roundabout, only at the exit. I advised her to read the road code. -36.908747879988, 174.78345763859 Bicycle Road user turns across cyclist’s path
