I don't think he's over-fond of cyclists - or any other road users!
Seems so. Not much tolerance shown to anyone!

Also the taxi driver wasn't in the wrong to be stopped in the cycle lane: it has a dashed dividing line hence making it advisory only.
But what happened is indeed unclear: my best guess was that the cyclist, singularly inattentive, ploughed into the side of the taxi. But the most significant feature is that the cyclist then abandoned 'his' bike and did a runner. I think anyone who's had a bike stolen in London recently, should take a long hard look at the image that the OP has thoughtfully provided at the end of his video...
I wasn't implying that he shouldn't post a video on this forum, but it appears from the video he deliberately and unnecessarily blocked the cycle lane - why? Shouldn't there be an explanation. We don't see what actually happened in the collision either. The cyclist did abandon the bike so it may have been stolen, but there could be other reasons. Too many unanswered questions in this video, leaving viewers guessing as to what happened. But if someone recognises the bike it may give a clue.
