So many questions... How fast was the boris biker going to catch you up, or were you driving towards the biker? How fast were you going that you had to crash into a fence to avoid one of the slowest vehicles on the road? How would a helmet have made it better, would it meant you'd have happily ploughed into boris biker if only he had a helmet?
I find when I'm driving that slowing down or stopping avoids pretty much all accidents, maybe you should have tried that?

Crossing the junction at lookers, turning right in left lane - was going to station. Boris either followed us through junction or jumped the red.
Anyway, post van was coming into my lane, I slowed , bike appeared, wet road. Back end hit first smashing the front end hard into the curb. All under 10 mph.

All under 10mph..
Powerful rear drive car,wet road and turning means the back will step out with the weight transfer to the front wheels under breaking, exacerbating the impact.
Helmet comment was a simple comment on a perceived lack of road sense. Rather using the marked out super highway we has in the middle of a busy junction.
And no I wouldn't have run him overhead be worn a helmet, but I would hold less contempt for him as smhe rode off from an accident

To miss a guy on a Boris bike getting between me and a post van I put my car into the railings opposite Lookers in Battersea. £1000 later it's back.
No helmet, no manners, no clue. Yes. Call out bad cyclists!
