The “dangerous” driver sounded her auto horn at the BBC presenter as he rode his bike down what he described as a “narrow” road in Kensington, west London.

Posting a video of the encounter on Facebook [warning: this video contains language that may offend], Vine invited viewers to “see what you think”.
The woman allegedly mimed pulling the trigger of a gun at Mr Vine in a second confrontation that took place just 30 seconds later.
The incident has been reported to the Metropolitan Police.
In a caption he wrote: ‘Concerned the driver is unsafe, I slow to explain’.
In the video, the woman blasts the car’s horn and can be seen raising her hands in frustration.
When he stopped his bike to explain why he was in the middle of the road, she got out and confronted him.
The woman then re-boards her vehicle and screeches past Vine, nearly smashing into a parked auto on the narrow street as she drives on.
Later in the footage, which is slowed down and subtitled, she shouts: “Why the f*** would you stop in front of a auto, you don’t respect your f***ing life, move your vehicle”.
Vine replies: “I’ve got to be within a car’s width of the parked cars”, at which point she begins kicking out at him and ordering him to move his bicycle. I could have hit you and I’d be done for a murder.
She then goes to her vehicle and Vine claims that as he drew up beside her she formed her hand into the shape of a gun which she then pretended to aim and fire at him, although, again, this cannot be seen in the footage.
The woman then drove off.
Speaking about the incident online, the star wrote: “This happened on Friday”. In a comment, he wrote: “I hate to overload our hard-working London police with footage from my commute, but I feel the person you see on the tape will at some point hurt someone very badly – either with her vehicle or in a direct personal assault”.

He did not add any further comment, saying: “Thanks for interview requests about this video”.
