I have rewatched the video a few times and also asked my colleague who is an IAM instructor to take a look at it. What I have learned from this experience:
- Treat bus lanes like filtering, slow down especially when the other lane is filled with stationary traffic. In this video I was doing maximum 20-25mph, and still the accident almost happened.
- Check the road layout. Expect that cars to pull at any time without indicating, especially before junctions.
- Check the wheels. On the video the wheel start turning seconds before the car moves. I know it is kind of hard to take a look at the wheels too, but you need to add it to your information gathering phase.
- Have a louder muffler. I am researching this option, but event the slip on mufflers are quite expensive (£2-300).
