Ah, Christmas. A time of peace and goodwill to all people on earth ... although as one road.cc reader found out earlier this week, that doesn't necessarily apply if you're a cyclist.
In the video above, there's a succession of instances of poor driving encountered in just one ride around Preston a couple of days before Christmas by road.cc reader Jon.
Jon told us: "Before a ride with some club mates I had a very bad close pass on the way to meet them.
"Then on the ride we had the 'I've got a car so need to be in front attitude', then a rider snapped his chain, and all finished off by a left hook.
"Everyone is in a rush at Christmas," he added.

> Near Miss of the Day turns 100 - Why do we do the feature and what have we learnt from it?
Over the years road.cc has reported on literally hundreds of close passes and near misses involving badly driven vehicles from every corner of the country – so many, in fact, that we’ve decided to turn the phenomenon into a regular feature on the site. One day hopefully we will run out of close passes and near misses to report on, but until that happy day arrives, Near Miss of the Day will keep rolling on.
If you’ve caught on camera a close encounter of the uncomfortable kind with another road user that you’d like to share with the wider cycling community please send it to us at info [at] road.cc or send us a message via the road.cc Facebook page.
If the video is on YouTube, please send us a link, if not we can add any footage you supply to our YouTube channel as an unlisted video (so it won't show up on searches).
Please also let us know whether you contacted the police and if so what their reaction was, as well as the reaction of the vehicle operator if it was a bus, lorry or van with company markings etc.
