Hi, long time reader first time etc etc
On way home tonight up Blackhorse lane, Walthamstow (not exactly cycling hotspot) got completely cut up by a large white van chucking a left down Hookers Rd (defo didn't indicate) and wheel actually went under the van, had to whack on the side to stop myself from going under it. Followed him down the industrial estate, he definitely would've done one had it not been a dead end, parked up and spoke to him with adrenaline pumping and few heated words were given from my end, however I calmed down enough and checked bike (amazingly nothing wrong - although on close expection at home a slight buckle in the rear wheel for some reason), he apologised (although only after my aggressive insistence on what he did wrong).
Anyway, as I was leaving a couple of dibble were walking down, i thought "fuck it" (had got £30 fine day before so wanteed to know what that particular tax was going on) so I told them what happened and that the bloke was wankered, they went and checked out all the reg/breathalised him etc and all checked out (unfortunately). Her indoors is saying I shoulda got reg plates etc etc, but there's nothing extra that could've been done really, is there?
Cheers for any answers :)
