I do most of my riding at night around city roads, have done since i took up cycling last year.

In the last week, ive nearly been taken off twice. :biggrin: One of these incidents ive reported to the police but no word back from them as of yet! (surprise surprise, and it was another taxi involved aswell!) Below is the link to tonights "attack of the taxi"

Taxi driver cuts me up

He was in the outter lane and i did have him in the corner of my eye well behind me. But last minute decided to dart across two lanes and get infront of me even though the lights were red.

He said he saw me, this i dont doubt. I dont even think im that angry that he pulled straight in front of me, im now wondering about the legality of small firearms attached to my front forks ;)

Is this worth reporting to the taxi company? I didnt get his reg only his taxi number (on the roof light of his car), i didnt get his rear reg plate as he was right along side me till we stopped, pushing me out to the side, and in heavy traffic.

If you got his registration/taxi ID, that's worth reporting.

Take the matter up with the correct authority (by the look of the vehicle that will be the local council) I'm a Taxi Driver and I don't hate you - group hug?
