Over the years cycling i have learned to be careful and be vigilant while cycling however you cant fool proof everything,
Today i was cycling from ilford to st paul station when i reached stratford i was going straight suddenly one car pulled out from the que which was waiting to turn on right (in very high speed Like he was driving on a race track), he did not gave any indication, luckily he stopped the car inches away from me, this gave me fright of my life, it happened around 1800hrs but still i am dealing with the trauma, the driver had no remorse he just raved away.
East london always had careless drivers as we have no law and order and policing resources are too busy in this part of the world. sadly we cyclist risk our lives everyday on the road. from ilford to bow road its a road to death specially A118 Romford Road.
I was wearing high visible cloths i had rear lights and front lights i cant think of anything to make me more visible. probability get my self a loud speaker, so people know i am there or wear an Armour.
are we ever going to feel safe on these roads and will this govt going to make separate routes for cyclists? not enough is being done
if a cyclist dies they put community support officers for few days on the road or give fines to some cyclists but they dont do anything to the drivers.
