Well.. given that you were going for an exit past 12 o'clock.. you were kind of in the wrong lane. From what I can see, anyway.

Sorry to see though, and wish you well if any injuries.

He was trying to exit just before I fell off !

[XanderZZR]

Personally I would have been slowing down when I saw the indicators and suggestion of movement from the silver car, you were still accelerating and not riding defensively, also swapping lanes.

This said.. At the point of impact it looks like you were ahead of the car from what I can see and usually the car behind is at fault...

Just my 2p. Hope your OK and you get the insurance result you want.

[sabian92]

What happened? Can't see from the video - not disputing fault but the video isn't particularly clear.

Hope you're alright though

How many red lights did you go through? I counted three.

I'd be deleting that video evidence if I was you as it won't do you any favours if it falls into the wrong hands.

Are these yellow bits where the lane decision has to be made?

So should really have gone straight into the right hand lane on the roundabout rather than trying to undertake to get ahead.


//edit:
Having said that, from this view:

That middle lane is for going round to the next exit, so OP was in the right lane.

If the car was in the inside lane then changed to take an exit and knocked u off then it's his fault clear as day. He definately didn't get Infront of you as we saw from the footage so he's clearly not seen u whizzing round the outside.

IMO the road markings show you were in the correct lane. Car that hit you wasn't in the right lane.

I would have been riding differently around there if it was me though.

Yeah you were just about in the correct lane, but then undertook rather than throttling off, went through numerous red lights, and was travelling quicker than you should have been. No wonder the car driver didn't see you, you would have not been there one second and then there the next.

The best you can hope for is a 50/50 IMO.

Better obs, more appropriate speed, and assuming you are invisible when out on the bike might decrease your chances of getting twatted off.

Looking at what G has put up, and from the video it seems as if you were in the right lane, but your riding perhaps wasn't the best. Seems like you were more interested in getting to where you were going as opposed to where others are going and what they are doing.

Not 100% the other guys fault, some fault does fall on you, but not that much, usual poor obs. On a roundabout like that I never pass people for this exact reason.

[suburban myth]

From what I can see it seems you drifted out of and then back into your lane. And you're sure it isn't any of your blame? Seriously I'd have had a good look at this video before blaming others. What I will say is that the actions of the car driver can't be seen, but he'd have had to do something really really daft to be hit with 100% fault IMO.

Take the vid down.

[Scootaloo]

Aye, I feel you we're ghosting ridering it.

Just put it down as a racing incident as that is what you appear to be treating the roads as. Your speed and lane changing are a major factor in the incident, The other guy does have a part to play in it, but even if he had taken reasonable observations I doubt the out come would have been much different.

It's a straight 50/50 insurance claim...

...unless you want to use the video evidence in which case it would show the driver to be more at fault for the actual collision but it clearly shows you riding through red lights, so I suspect the insurance company would refuse to pay out.

[G]

The lane markings also don't look to be very good from the picture.

While the lane the OP was in is marked with 'London' too, the edges of the lane keep it going towards the south west A30.
While the lane the driver was in seems to head over to the far left from the dotted lines.


50/50 or sue the council?

[bikertomm]

Fuck that for a laugh.. inb4 poor obvs and shit riding!

GWS!
