Heart-in-mouth moment this morning, thought I was gonna be a fatality witness. Artic tipper lorry at junc of Southwark Bridge Road, indicating left to turn into Southwark St, cyclists behind at distance, then decides he's not got the clearance to make the turn, so indicates right to give himself more space, then goes to make the left turn (with left indicator on), whilst lady cyclist behind thought he'd committed to going right instead shoots up his inside left, oblivious to imminent danger. Shouted at her to look out for it turning, and she stopped just in time to give it space to turn, and she carried on merrily on her way. Scary stuff.
