100% Ambulance drivers fault.
The cyclist had already entered the junction before the ambulance
appeared and made every effort to clear the junction as quickly as
possible. Being on an emergency call does not permit ambulance
drivers to endanger other road users.

We can see drivers had pulled to the side before the junction and
the rider had plenty of room to do so too. The ambulance driver
should be hauled over for incorrect use of the horn; pure
aggression, what was he/she expecting to happen at that late stage?

If you were in the back of the ambulance, crying, bleeding,
screaming and asking for your mammy like scum, cowardly, cyclists
do, would you still have the same intensely stupid attitude?


I could always take comfort in the fact that I am not you.


I was not replying to you. I know it's hard for you to understand this
medium, but you are a cyclist - to your shame.
I take no comfort in not being you. This as there is no reason to be you.
Are you not ashamed of being you?


52yo research professor retiring in 3 years with a guaranteed £200K pa pension and an even wealthier wife, I have no problem being me.
