As the cyclist approaches the intersection, the young boy suddenly cycles on to the road, causing an accident  

The younger boy suddenly escapes his father's grip and rides straight into oncoming traffic immediately crashing into the cyclist, causing an accident.  

The little boy falls to the ground, while the boy behind him is thrown off his bike. 

The cyclist managed to remain on his bike but slows down upon collision. 

The footage was shared on UpRide, a movement dedicated to making cycling safer  and raising awareness of dangers on the road. 

The organisation encourages cyclists to use cameras while riding to have evidence in the event of an accident.   

'Without video evidence, a crash on the road can come down to your word against theirs,' the website states.

'That’s why we insist on video-only incidents for UpRide. So, record your ride and join the movement.'
