was riding home from work this morning - about 5:45am coming along Queens Road in Nunhead. Stopped at a set of lights and all of a sudden I felt a bump
Looked behind and there was a white escort rammed up my arse!
couldn’t believe it
I know it’s early but ffs, how did he not see my. Lights on, foot on brake so he must have been talking or sleeping
Luckily only hit the wheel and didn’t do any damage
I shouted much profanity inside my helmet and gestured to him to move back off my bloody wheel but all he did was wave about and touch his head a few times as if to say “sorry, I didn’t realise”.
Idiot - wake up and try not to run over other motorists in future!
I had to roll forward over the stop line to get off his bumper
He turned off immediately despite no indicators so I reckon he was just high-tailing it out of there.
I cannot believe how much this happens!! But in Nunhead or peckham i think the risk is much higher to get hit by people who just cannot drive! I can honestly say the driving standard drops to an alarming rate in those areas. I lived there for many years and my family still do so i am there very often.
