For the the kings road junction, while I don't know the specifics of your incident, never try and go through that junction adjacent to another moving vehicle. The lanes are not wide enough, as can be seen in the photo. If you're not in primary, you're gambling. Terrible junction, terrible road markings / 'cycle lane'.

I reported that truck yesterday, but seems like the road markings are a joke. Still no excuse. I think that was the only time I arrived at the junction with the light green and queue of cars. I almost always catch the red light and filter through, so never noticed the danger.
Good commute, perfetto weather for the perfetto jersey. Not sweaty even a little bit.

I use a "Mobius ActionCam" at the front, it's a small little camera. I actually used it previously on a drone and as a dashcam too. 6 years. Replacing the battery every three or so. Records about 2 hours + change.
I used to have it under the saddle for a few years, but as a front cam it gives more YouTubeable results. That reminds me some cunt tailgated me today in Parliament Square, no footage (because the cam is at the front) and readable plate on the recording.
Also had a close call with a flatbed truck near the light at King's Road just before the Lots Road entrance, squeezing me to the left. Then he went ahead and blocked a yellow box. Will report, although the number plate's murky because of the water on the lens. (I have better shots, I'll just need to examine frame by frame)
