Driver illegally stopped in a bus stop to let a passenger out. Nowhere to go!
The second person to ask if I was alright was the driver. But he didn't identify himself as the driver and it wasn't until I downloaded the video that I saw that he had pulled into the next driveway and came back to check on me.
I'm not going to report him because technically (maybe) I should have been on the shared foot/cycle path.
However the reasons I wasn't are a) with all the driveways coming out it's all up and down and impossible to go at any speed on it and b) 2 years ago (pre-Cycliq) I came up behind some pedestrians and they jumped right in front of me.
Anyway, this time I suffered a very bruised right index knuckle and a few other minor scratched and bumps.
The bike is relatively unscathed, right brake lever twisted to the side but I was able to straighten it ok.
In all, I think I was very lucky - it could have been a lot worse.

ps. The gaps in the audio are where I said some very bad words.
pps. The time is 1 hour out because I hadn't reset it since the change from daylight saving time.
