I was traveling by bike along Kenepuru Drive towards Porirua and entered the roundabout intersection with Raiha Street.
Bus LRH16 was turning right from Raiha Street towards Tawa and entered the roundabout as I was traveling through it, failing to give way to me and forcing me to take extreme evasive action to avoid a collision, avoiding it by probably less than 50cm.
I had two bright lights on facing forward, one steady and one flashing. I have been cycle commuting in Wellington and Porirua for the last 17 years, and this is the closest I have ever come to an accident with another vehicle in all that time.
