After yesterday having a pedestrian step out in front of me and then have a go at me for it, today i was cycling in one of the very few cycle lanes i get on my way to work when a car was waiting to turn right so the car behind it decided to swerve into the cycle lane so it could squeeze past.

Either it knew exactly where I was and brilliantly judged my speed and reaction time on the roads and the friction between my tyres and the road or it just didnt care/notice i was there as it missed me by about a foot! I think i know which is the more likely!

    Having been lucky enough to avoid two accidents, if I were you, I'd go and buy a lottery ticket for tonight's draw.
