Almost got taken out by some twat in a hired Luton who pulled the classic 'I will overtake this cyclist now, oh no there is traffic coming the other way down this two way street who could have predicted, I will pull in again now' move. Fortunately, I could see it coming a mile off so I'd already slowed down to avoid getting smashed, but still had to slam the brakes on as I hadn't predicted how much of a screeching halt he'd have to come to in order to avoid a collision of his own.
Caught him at the next set of lights and politely requested that he never do that again to me or to any other cyclist. He had the decency to look slightly sheepish.
