It's not always easy to bike around in Toronto, and one local courier knows this first hand after an incident with a taxicab on Thursday.

In the video footage, which is now spreading online, the cab looks like it hits the Favour Delivery person and knocks him to the sidewalk. After he gets up he yells, "You're going to jail, that is assault."

A number of bystanders, including another cyclist, appear to stick around. "For two blocks you've been on his ass," says one onlooker to the taxi driver.
