    I have a friend(shock!) who has had a word with a couple of cyclists. One ignored him, one got abusive. But you are right! I might give it a try next time. I have seen a few accidents(or the aftermarth) recently and I always find it very upsetting.

    I suppose I will get my face punched in for my trouble.....
    Depends how you do it. Offer sympathy, ask if they are ok. Then gently point out that the inside of a bus/lorry when they are pulling away or turning is not really a safe place to be. If they get arsey just say "suit yourself" and ride off.

      Ride off fast. Very fast.
