Super odd exchange with a driver today: was approaching traffic lights, two lanes one for left and one for straight on. The straight ahead lane was empty, the left hand one had three stationary cars. I was cycling in the middle, thinking about it I should have taken the right hand lane sooner but moved into it as I got to the stationary cars. I could hear a car coming up behind me but the lights were red and I was a few yards from the line.

Anyway I stop on the line to the left and am surprised when a 4x4 pulled alongside me since it was a squeeze. Anyway Irish chap in the car decides to tell me I 'should have had my blinkers on' when I moved into the lane (I literally went a foot to the right) I ask why since the light is red and he must have been going slowly. He says he could have hit me and I said he would have to be a very bad driver to hit me, to which he says 'well I'm a bad driver' and I just said if you say so. That was it no cursing, but just had that awkward moment waiting for the lights to change. He eased the tension by putting on some folk jig noise and singing along with it.

Then as the lights change he absolutely guns his engine and wheelspins off the line shooting across the junction. There another cyclist on the road on the other side who was quite wide out in the road so this guy first honks his horn and then is forced to violently swerve around him. It was pretty close though and the driver was barely in control.

Really fucking odd. Glad he didn't hit the other cyclist, not sure exactly why he did, perhaps he was determined to prove just how bad a driver he was
