Has anyone else had bad experiences with the junction here: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@55.940333,-3.194616,3a,90y,299.78h,77.8t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sb19sFz1OirUBQqejFH17rQ!2e0
A few weeks ago I was cycling up to it and the pedestrian crossing just changed to green as I got there. I'd carefully checked all the stationary traffic for people indicating left and none were. A lorry was at the front and I was level with his cab as we all started to move off. He accelerated, overtook and indicated only as he started to turn the corner and hit me. No damage done but the police were involved at the time. Unfortunately a pothole had dislodged the SD card in my camera so it wasn't captured and as the vehicle had all the required mirrors and lights there wasn't anything the police could do even though it was clear the driver hadn't checked the mirrors in this case. The police put the incident down to poor junction design and told me they have been campaigning for the council to fix it by moving the pedestrian crossing away from the left turn and putting in an ASL.
Any other near misses / accidents here? Apparently they are occurring on a fairly regular basis as drivers don't realise that making a left turn is crossing a cycle lane - they think the lights are part of the junction
