Nearest near-miss I've had in a while this morning - riding along Kennington Road, at the junction with Kennington Lane/the Imperial War Museum. I'm in the centre lane going straight over towards Waterloo, with a green light. I see a white van man about to turn right across my path, so feather my brakes slightly to avoid him. Didn't count on the fact that there'd be an Audi tailgaiting him about to t-bone me. Shouted loudly and swerved and then rode slowly to work with adrenaline shakes. I can't even rant about it on twitter because my mum follows me and it'd just upset her...
