The cyclist could have pulled over a bit into the space in the parking bay to his left, but the car driver is always in the wrong when passing so close since it leaves no margin for error, regardless of whether the cyclist is riding inconsiderately.
There will always be different views on these situations, and I don't agree that the driver passed too close. I'm regularly passed at least as close in my London borough and I don't flinch at that our roads being often too narrow to allow yards of space.
In reality how close the pass is often exaggerated, as my situation has often shown. Sometimes a seemingly very close pass can make even me flinch, especially when it's a large truck, but in fact it's not as close as it seems. I have a mirror stuck out from the handlebar end, meaning that what seemed like the car/truck was only an inch or two away was in fact at least six inches away from the handlebars and my arm and possibly more.
Have a look at some videos of today's cycle commuting in London and you'll see many instances of the gaps between bikes and motor traffic very close with the cyclists showing no concern. It's just a part of living in cities and they are used to it.
I think a lot of the trouble is that some cyclists are far too nervous to be cycling in traffic and that causes these panicky reactions and screams of anger of the sort seen in this video. If this cyclist really didn't like fairly close passes, all he had to do was use the more than ample space to allow for that.
The fact is that he wasn't hit, and the driver didn't blast his horn or yell out for him to get out of the way. So there was no excuse for the cyclist to react in any way, other than carrying on cycling.
