Why was a unicyclist on the road anyway? It seems about as sensible as using a pogo stick.

Sorry, but riding a unicycle on a public road cannot possibly be legal. A unicycle is not a road legal vehicle. What a stupid, irresponsible prat the unicyclist is.

Injured and in hospital but not life threatening. Probably have to stay a few extra days to get over the embarrassment of riding a UNICYCLE down a hill into a fking massive red double decker bus.

It's very busy there all the bleeding time. At what point did he think that riding a unicycle towards a busy junction was a good idea?

Anyway, hope he ends up ok.

No darwin award this time it seems. Good luck next time, be a sweetie though and try to do something that doesn't cause road closures and disruption.

All I saw was a blurred vid that showed a big red bus moving whilst a crowd of people pushed and lifted it.
Can someone point me to the vid that you've all seen which shows this stupid Uni cyclist hurtling dangerously down the road, before colliding with the bus.

I am sure the Unicyclist had every right to cycle where he did. And the bus was dropped on him from an invisible flying tipper lorry.

Glad he is okay. The tt.

Even if he wasnt riding recklessly, what sort of moron thinks a highly unstable and unpredictable clown's toy is a clever way to commute on busy city streets? Stupid hipster wker

Hardly rare to have people drive a car with bald tyres.

You're wrong. Unicycles were specifically added to the definition of pedal cycles in 1994 so are covered by the same rules.
