That's f*****g crazy!!!! You handled the situation much better than I would have!!!

Reason = Unskilled driver.

What the hell was the driver looking at seriously? That is one of the most simple turns I've ever seen conducted and failed.

Looks like a bit of both really.

Car not looking and cyclists thinking they wait for no man. If he was legs, he would have stopped and looked

That's presuming he was on the path by the looks of it ?

Nah the bike was on the road in a cycle / bus lane. The driver just didn't see him, lost in the support for the roof is my guess.

I would agree with that. Just looks like a standard bump rather than a SMIDSY of being ignorant
