Clearly (IMHO) the driver was day-dreaming. This happened to one of my sons 3 or 4 years ago. It was completely the drivers fault, but a more experienced cyclist would have seen the potential danger before it happened and been on the alert. Guess there's no substitute for experience.
I have, on several occasions nearly come a croppa at junctions where I couldn't make eye contact because of deep tinted windows. I can't understand why tinted windows on the front of a car should be legal.
