Wow, today was special.
1) Moped rider on my back wheel at Stockwell, gesturing for me to move into the cycle lane that disappeared under some roadworks in 20 yards. No.
2) Lake Geneva is back at the entrance to the Oval segregated lane. Such fun.
3) Left-turning bus sitting across the CS7 at the end of the segregated lane when the lights went green for the straight ahead traffic. As much of a design-flaw as bad driving.
4) Me doing a bit of really silly filtering up the left of a bus that had stopped at the lights at E&C. Note to self: don't filter up anywhere where you can't see the way out.
5) Lorry parked in the CS7 on Southwark Bridge Road.
6) HGV stopped fully in the cycle box on Southwark Bridge Road. Aw, he thinks he's a bicycle. Cute.
7) Left turning car fully in the cycle box at the junction of Southwark Bridge Road and Southwark Street.
8) Right-turning car gets caught up in a wave of peds when the green man comes on and he hasn't quite made his turn yet. Not sure whose fault this was, but it sure was fun to watch.
What is it about a bit of rain that turns people into idiots on the roads?
