It's really challenging riding in rush hour London traffic. I was lane splitting quite a bit.

The incident was totally my fault. Hope I didn't damage that back of the guys van I'm sure he has my number plate details though so he could track me down if I did do damage.

I saw you mentioned heading "home from London" so wasn't sure if you were in the city proper or had already escaped and just out on the motorway somewhere.

I've watched a few tv shows that feature going downtown London. I think those convinced me that if I ever do make it to England, I'm walking unless I'm going up north somewhere.

Glad you are ok and you just got scuffed rather than splattered. I would imagine a bit more following distance might have helped too, but then some dingdong in a Mini might have tried slipping between you and the van.

Stay safe little squirrel.
