Occasionally, we feature compilation videos in our Near Miss of the Day series, and now and again, we show videos from outside the UK.
Today we have a bit of both for you, courtesy of road.cc reader Ivo, who lives in the Croatian capital, Zagreb.
Drivers pulling out without looking or making close passes, as well as one dithering ahead of a junction before finally trying to turn left without noticing the approaching cyclist - it's all here.
Wherever you are in the world at this time, if you're out riding, stay safe.
> 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.

I had no idea Croatia was quite so popular with UK drivers.
Cuvaj se Ivo
