Cyclist down Lewisham High Street

artaxerxes

I saw this scene on my way back from the nearby Aldi, a cyclist (dark grey helmet and black top) was down and appeared to be unconsious on the corner of Lewisham High Street and Albacore Crescent, opposite the Lewisham and Kent Islamic Centre.
He was in front of a double decker bus and a convertible BMW, so I'm not sure how he was knocked down, the position of the BMW indicated that it was turning left into Albacore Crescent. An ambulance from the nearby Lewisham hospital was already there and he was being attended to.

Hope he is ok. Stay safe all.

Ditto.

I couldn't see the face, but going by the build and colour/style of the clothing I was pretty certain it was a bloke.

Surely it's easier to speak to her directly?

Anyway, I hope whoever it is is relatively ok.

I wonder if it was the same muffin who tried to left hook me yesterday by the hospital. I pray that they're ok.

Hope they are ok.

There's lots of potential for hairy moments on that road, specially when traffic builds up and gaps are left for oncoming traffic to turn right (across the bus lanes).
