Yesterday I saw a guy fly over his handlebars on Southwark Bridge. I was walking with someone and saw out the corner of my eye. I saw him and the bike somersault over a tiny lady, but they both seemed without injury, more shock. It took them some minutes to gather themselves.
The three coming behind him managed to stop before piling up. I didn't see if she stepped into the bike lane or he was on the path and fell into it, either way the two of them were on the blue.
Today there were a lot of people acting much less aware than usual, stepping into roads, walking blind into others, and some strange driver behavior, unnecessary acceleration to beat red lights from halfway down the road, and so on.
Was it all by chance, or is this sunshine making people go mental?
