It looks to me like the lambo swerved from the right side of the road. Was she on the wrong side? If so, it could be mitigating circumstances for the other driver?? She seemed to be doing some speed as well, although that could just be the lambo theme tune playing.

[QUOTE 3007428, member: 9609"]Is it not a left hand drive and she was the passenger ?

Horrendous piece of driving, way in excess of the speed limit, a car of that pedigree could probably stop in yards form 30. It hit two cars and still took about 10 car lengths to stop.

Found this video as well, full marks to the cyclist. May be it was the same pratt in the car

Difficult to exert much braking force when the car is half airborne though!

I've done similar riding on some of the tighter roads in West London. Some nobbers think they own the road 'cos daddy is rich and they have small willies...

I understand that, but there was space to get past, the cyclist deliberately blocks them and then waits for the car to come round again to do the same, and there are people standing watching and filming doing nothing about it. You'd have thought that they would have said something to him.

Either that or the cyclist was just being a twat.

That was my take on it. Also, I found it a little strange that there was someone with a camera just at the right spot and time, but would you wreck a £300.000 car, even if you were fabulously rich? Or was it a rich man having his car filmed, and it all went a bit wrong?

That's what the person making the video says - but they're filmed in different streets*. I'd suggest it was more a case of the driver coming looking for the cyclist on the second occasion...

And that's a film from one of the supercar plonkers (which is why the cameras were out). So do you think the person making video is really going to be an independent observer?


*I've cycled that area quite a lot, as I used to live just down the road.

Ok, it just seemed a little contrived when I watched it, and nor did I say the people filming were independent, but I'll take your word for it.

My guess is that the first car was going way too fast. Based on the speed with which was moving!

In the second, cyclist blocking clip, I think the car was doing a circular route and the cyclist had already encountered it.

London must have one of the largest concentrations of excessive wealth in Europe if not the world, fast cars being one consequence. And let's be realistic, £300k is a week's wages for some; my humble motor is worth more than 52x that to me!
