I was riding up Queens' Road Peckham not too long ago, when a car pulled out of a side street almost flattening me. I got ahead of him in the bus lane as traffic was fairly heavy, but then he cuts right across me to turn off again, forcing me to slam on both brakes and fixie skid to a stop. No indicating for either manoeuvre of course...
I would have been quite angry, but parked up in the street the dick had turned into was an HGV with the driver sat in the cab, who saw the whole thing, and as the car pulled past him he leant out the window and (literally) screamed 'WANKER!' at the car driver. Didn't catch the haulage company name, but waved my thanks and rode off smiling.
