Got cut up by a youngish Asian girl at an intersection on Marylebone road after my pathetic attempt at the hour of power. I was knackered so didn't say anything. She took off after the light changed and about a 150 metres down the road went all wobbly. She somehow managed to hit the concrete kerb repeatedly sending up an impressively sparky display, and scarily, whacked her helmet and upper body against the railing dividing traffic.
I was behind her and got there before she was up. She said she was okay and reassuringly was able to move all her limbs before taking off on the scooter now lacking most of the right side. I do suspect that she has at least a broken collarbone. She really bent at a scary angle when she hit that fence.
It was all very weird and the one time in the last 2 weeks that I wasn't riding with a camera.
