Your faith in the justice system is quaint.
But feel free to keep wasting your time. I'm sure you won't regret it.

Stop with this 'us and them' bullshit. If a teenager nicked your cab and went on a joyride causing mayhem, you wouldn't call him a cabbie. Just 'cos someone is riding a bike doesn't mean they're a cyclist. The guy in the video doesn't seem very attached to his bike. You're posting on a forum full of people who are very attached to their bikes, some to the point of obsession. We're not going to know blokey in your video. Even if you had asked more nicely.

This would be more interesting if @TaxiWarrior was an avid cyclist. Do you ride, driver?

Looks to me like the taxi-driver parked in the cycle lane, right next to the ped refuge, matey on the bike tried to follow the lane as marked and squeeze past the taxi but misjudged it and there was some sort of collision.
Who caused the scratch is open to question though as the cab moves forward.
Conclusion- drive selfishly, with no regard for other road users and these things may happen.

Anyway, in all seriousness it looks like you parked in the cycle lane, as said up-thread, albeit an advisory one, so I'd say it was your lookout.
If he was hit side–on, the cycle lane doesn't really come into it. The fact the cyclist left his bike and ran off suggests he knew he was in the wrong.
runs off

If you'd not blocked the cycle lane then who knows- the cyclist might have got past you.

Actually, in some kind of twisted alter universe where our road tyranny is reversed and the two wheeled menace rules the road, you are taken to court by the guy in the plastic hat for theft of his bicycle.
And asked to take a driver awareness course.

Why would you think we'd know him? I wasn't aware there was a "people on a bicycle club" where we all learn each others names because we made a decision to use a certain vehicle. Do you know all taxi drivers?

If it was head on, what would have hit the cab?
Clue=not very scratchy.

If you went to the SMC for £50 worth of damage and won, you actually lost.
Do you even opportunity cost?

I admit, it was me. Can I have my bike back please?

Sure, but try gumtree. You'd have more luck.

Bonza, I'll ask the coppers why they didn't have words with you about your driving.
If so I would end up on the front taxi ass. Check out the beginning of the vid.
