Cycle Camera TV
Late to this thread as I was in berlin but i'll throw my 2p in anyway. What is about to be said may have already been said but here it goes anyway.
The filtering in that situation with bus stopped and cars passing already. Something which I do regularly in london, you won't make much progress if you don't do such things at places like streatham and brixton, however you have to be on the look out for certain clues.
The Clues:
Now as an experienced camera user, i know that what I see in the video may go un-noticed to the eye of the beholder and as such the indicator could easily be missed. So what to do with such a video? Well I would put this down to 6 of 1 half a dozen of the other. Both parties had a play, the driver didn't check their blind spot before turning and the cyclist shouldn't have put them selves in that situation. I would personally learn from the playback and move on or make a video about the mistake and use it to educate others on what to look out for.

The Clues:
- at the start the car has come from a side road and is entering lane 1
- car sees bus is stationary and moves to lane 2.
- cars indicator comes on whilst next to the bus and the cyclist is in the blind spot, lane change will happen pretty soon after the front of the bus.
