On my way home yesterday I saw a woman in a smart car pull out of a side road directly into a cyclist. Fortunately, it was a gentle boop of a collision, and he didn’t come to any harm but it was particularly special of her. Broad daylight, clear visibility and line of sight, he was just pootling along at no particular velocity and he could not have been wearing more hi-vis. I mean, the guy had really gone to town on the yellow. She didn’t appear to have been on the phone and seemed utterly bewildered as to the situation. Smart cars do seem to attract some truly dopey people.
