Moment SUV driver CRUSHES a bicycle in front of horrified onlookers during heated spat with cyclist

The shocking moment a £47,000 black Jaguar drives over an expensive bike, smashing it to pieces and leaving onlookers horrified, has been captured on video. 

A Lycra-clad cyclist is seen standing in the road at the junction of Kilburn High Road and Brondesbury Road after a spat with the driver of the Jaguar. 

The cyclist is holding a phone to his ear and is believed to have been on the phone to the police. 

Moments later the Jaguar surges forward, leaving the cyclist milliseconds to jump out of the way of the SUV.

The cyclist was standing in the road at the junction of Kilburn High Road and Brondesbury Road when the Jaguar collided with his bike. He is believed to have been on the phone to police following a spat between the men 

His black road bike is totally crushed by the vehicle and is left in several pieces in the road. 

The back wheel is wrenched completely free from the frame of the bicycle. 

Onlookers gasped and shouted as the bike is flattened under the tyres of the expensive SUV. 

The driver then stopped the vehicle and confronted the cyclist on the pavement. 

The cyclist, still on the phone, said: ‘He’s now threatening me again. The man has driven into me and then driven over my bike.’

Some on social media supported the driver, with some complaining about the actions of cyclists generally. 

Users pointed out that the cyclist appears to have been crossing the road on the phone and that the Jaguar was in a yellow box, meaning that it needed to move. 

But others have said the driver overreacted and was driving dangerously. 

One user said: ‘God, I’m not even a cyclist and I don’t particularly like them. But the amount of morons in these comments defending the driver, honestly.’ 

Another account said the driver was a ‘lunatic’. 

MailOnline has contacted the Metropolitan Police for comment.
