He is alot more chilled than i would have been, bet he started wearing a helmet after that too.

Probably cos the taxi came out of it far worse than he did and there's little point hanging around discussing the finer points of the driver being a ****.

That's a horrible junction - IMAX on south end of Waterloo Bridge.

I don't suppose the London Taxi Driver Association will be publicising that one widely.

🙂 that was my first thought on seeing it too!

I hate busy roundabouts in rush hour, all drivers are worried about is spotting a gap and getting out, they don't look for bikes. There's one right at the end of my commute but I always take a diversion if it's rush hour as I've had a few near misses exactly like that.

Sod off the lot of you! 😛

TBH i thought it was going to be the camera rider and i thought he was setting himself up for a problem by jinking through the vehicles on a very narrow lane. I would have stayed in the traffic queue myself but that's me.
I did think "bloomin' 'eck he's moving some" then saw him hit the taxi that jumped the junction!

This one off that link is depressing if only for this following reason given by the police as to why they won't follow up on it :-

[b]The weather conditions making it difficult for the driver to see.

Past the end of the bonnet? 😯
