Had I of continued my right of way course I & my GF would of been hit.
I was in a clear visible lane position and I'm very sure the driver saw me. The fact that he smiles about the incident shows he's a trouble individual.
When I spoke to the driver he did not deny anything! Also he never used the "SMIDSY" line either. He just bull$h!tted about being a good driver.
I only very rarely report drivers to the police or PCO but this was one the few special cases that clearly warranted it.
Check out this video which shows wide angle cameras and emergency braking

UPDATE: Turns out a lot of you are morons and fail to understand the road actually bends right which is the direction I was heading in before the taxi pulled out in front of me.

Biker Close Call With London Bus
Not really sure who's to blame here. I usually use the Bus Lane on this road but ended up filtering past traffic on the right. He wasn't indicating to turn right when I started filtering so I went for it... had I seen him indicate to go right I wouldn't think twice about it.
So yeah, bricks were shat. My arm is fine... that's why we wear gear with armour folks :)

Crazy Motorbike riders *NoFear R1 Yamaha
The Yamaha R1 True power! *No FeaR Motor cycle ride through traffic."Onboard footage with Tyler Kirk. Tyler is now a responsible rider and hopes nobody will repeat or try riding a motorcycle in such an irresponsible manner. Tyler is an adrenaline junky and used his motorcycle in a very dangerous way to get that burning yet pleasurably warm, exhilarating yet calming adrenaline rush. He came close to dying many times. He encourages people to obey the law and new riders to get their experience on the racetrack where it is safe."

Ryan Moore Stunts the Aprilia SXV supermoto **SUPERMOTO STUNT MAN**
For more info: www.50stunt.com
Take a ride with Ryan Moore on the Aprilia SXV 450 Supermoto as he tames this wild beast of a bike! The Aprilia is the Ferarri of Supermotos made in Itali and the styling and performance of this bike shows!
"It is obvious that the name SXV and the bike itself, is strongly related to the RXV model produced by the same manufacturer starting with 2007 model year. The RXV was destined to become an incredible enduro motorcycle, and it did, while the SXV headed towards supermotard success. It dominates the tracks in Europe, but here in the States regulations are a bit tricky to ignore and the bike is not allowed to participate the AMA Championship because of the V-twin engine configuration.
Even so, people buy these things for pure fun and let's face it; they are built for the track.
The prohibited engine can displace either 449cc or 549cc, but no matter the cylinder capacity, riders are trilled by great engine performance obtained with the help of four valves per cylinder and a single overhead cam. Vibrations are out of the question thanks to the 77 degree cylinder angle.
Popular among racers and lovers of this sport, the Aprilia SXV is just starting its career as the most competitive supermotard out there."
Central London Filtering Fun
Yesterday was a glorious spring London day - but amazingly windy. Took a spin around London to show how much easier it is to get around a congested city on two wheels. A rider's eye view, for those who don't normally ride in cities...
