A distracted Lime bike rider crashed into a parked bus causing them to fly headfirst over the handlebars.

Whilst riding down a busy high street, the woman can be seen gesturing to someone on the pavement.

Due to not focussing on what was in front of them the rider wobbled before hitting the wheel arch of the stationary double decker.

The woman was left face down on the floor with the bike on top of her, as reported by Need To Know.
