^^^+^^ this happens SO frequently I don't bother posting it on here any more, I've accepted it's just a part of the commute. For example 10 mins ago I narrowly missed a ped strike and I'm talking centimetre's away from this bloak running all four lanes of Elephant&Castle/OKR to catch a bus and 2 mins ago on New Cross Road, a ped stepped out behind a van, blamo. He'll probably think twice next time?
In comparison I never get in any bother or shouting matches with motorists or motorcycles at all. I've had 1 minor incident involving a vehicle trying to park on me and that's it in the last 2 years.
