I wasn't sure whether to report this to the police so I didn't but want to know if I should have.
I had to skid and fell off my bike but someone else might have had to crash into this guy. One of those corporate saloon driving wankers.
I was going through a medium sized roundabout to turn right and was positioned as far inside as could be. I didn't signal initially but did so as I started to turn, and was going at about 15mph so got back on the bar as I banked across. The first driver stopped and waited, but that wanker was in the next lane behind that one and clearly had sight of me but decided to carry on at full speed. I would have definitely hit him, potentially going underneath a wheel but ended up on my arse.
Felt unsure as if it was a two lane roundabout it would have been my fault for not signaling I want to move outside, but it's really only a one laner so you aren't allowed to overtake or cut up whilst going around.
Thoughts?
