Dangerous driving – Do you know this Royal Mail HGV driver?

I'm posting for a cyclist called James, who I met while we were involved with putting together Deep Lee's ghost bike, had an incident this morning on the roads. James isan exceptionally measured and safe cyclist although had a very close call this morning with an HGV. Just posting here in case anybody saw anything this morning, on Farringdon Road, or recognises the driver.

After cutting in on James he caught up with the driver to which the driver responded “the roads are dangerous you should get out of the way”.

Do you know him?

Thanks!!

If you get the registration it makes it so much easier. It's the most important bit of information you need. it's worth practicing in your head what you will do if you are involved in an incident so that the adrenaline does not make you forget: stay calm, get the registration, write it down at once along with the time and location.

Yeah, unfortunately he didn't get the registration of the HGV so is trying to find out who the driver is. Bit of a longshot, I agree.

As an aside, I was nearly hit by a black people-carrier taxi this morning and noted his registration number down. I checked online and the registration comes back to a blue Porche Boxster, so not entirely sure what that's about...

Well you should definitely report that! All manner of illegality there.

There is a picture on the Cycling Intelligence blog, although it's not particularly clear--it might be more legible in a higher resolution:
