This is quite rare in Oxford. One of the benefits of bikes outnumbering cars.
The one time it happened to me, I was extremely lucky to do this kind eccentric bail over the back wheel maneuver, while my bike carried on at full speed into the car's near side as it turned left (UK). My front wheel needed replacing, which her insurance paid for. So, apparently, did her passenger door. I like to think she lost her no claim bonus, but she didn't seem like the kind of driver who would have one.
