So the South African idiot working at Evans' Cycles Chalk Farm today told me that collisions between cyclists and cars are ALWAYS the fault of the cyclist.
I asked why he believed that and he said it is the cyclist's duty to be seen and if they were seen they wouldn't be hit. I said what about lorries that can't see us due to shitty design. He restated his argument again more emphatically. Total knob end. I thought he was winding me up but he was serious.
