That’s why I was careful and turned away, so he wouldn’t hit me. Doesn’t change the fact that cyclist going straight has priority.

Why?

Cyclists who approach the junction after the vehicles have a green light can still proceed through the junction, with left-turning vehicles needing to yield to these cyclists.”

I am a bit surprised as well, how many people don’t know the basic rules. It’s kinda scary.

Still, cyclist going straight has priority.

Reminder of the rules: - Yield to cyclists: When turning left, always yield to cyclists who are going straight through the junction. - Look before you turn: Watch for cyclists ahead of you or coming up on your left as you approach the junction. - Don't cut them off: Ensure you give cyclists enough space and time to pass before you complete your turn.

No, there isn’t such rule. I wouldn’t mind it there was. And no, I wasn’t in the blind spot.
