Who rode onto a mini roundabout in front of me about 40 mins ago:
Vehicles on the roundabout have priority.
Signaling Right while breaking the above rule doesn’t change it.
But for my quick reactions and good brakes, you’d be in A&E now, if not the morgue.

Well done on the quick thinking and avoiding action.
I assume this was the cyclist’s ‘don’t brake or stop under any circumstances’ syndrome in full operation.
‘Priority’ to a cyclist means they have it at all times and in any situation; by and large they seem to have read only those parts of the Highway Code that benefit them. I blame the cyclist media and web sites for fostering this mist unfortunate attitude.

Freudian?
The mist would be red, of course.
