I saw this on the way home as well. Rider was being attended by a few polices officers and a bike paramedic. I asked one of the bus driver who was stopped directly behind the coach what happened and he said she'd undertaken the bus.
Then he got all shirty as he thought I was trying to blame the driver. I assured him I wasn't.
Hope the rider heals up fast and the injuries aren't serious.
Then on Hackney Road/Dawson St I was behind a girl undertaking a tipper trunk (the rider killing kind), it had stopped to let a car turn right as the pelican crossing was on red. She went up the inside at speed and nearly into the side of the turning car.
Luckily she managed to stop but nearly fell into the the tipper. I'm so glad she managed to stop in time and the truck wasn't moving.
