Lots going on this morning - lady scooter rider was lying flat on her back surrounded by people helping her at the big junction by Seven Sisters. I briefly stopped and chatted to a cyclist who'd witnessed it, seems the truck in the right lane had tried to cut left and had basically pushed her over. She was clear of the lorry, and seemed awake and ok, but they weren't moving her so traffic was completely stuck behind her and the lorry. As she seemed to be in good hands and as I had nothing to offer, I moved on.
Saw an ambulance, one of the HEMS Skodas and the air ambulance above all heading from Kings Cross towards Old St direction as I waited at the lights at Angel, I hope whoever they were going to help was ok.
Oh and saw some terrible riding as well. A bellend on a fixed gear Foffa, with ginger teddyboy hair, leather jacket, Alan Partridge driving gloves, no foot retention, no bartape or plugs and running red lights was the one that stood out the most.
