Incident 'appeared deliberate'published at 11:34 British Summer Time 14 August 2018
A number of witnesses have said the silver Ford Fiesta appeared to deliberately hit members of the public.
Barry Williams, a BBC staff member based at Millbank, said the car drove onto the wrong side of the road and "ploughed" into cyclists waiting at the traffic lights.
"Then it swerved back across the road and accelerated as fast as possible, and hit the barrier at full pelt," he said.
Jason Williams told BBC Radio 4's Today programme the driver had "driven at speed - more than 40mph".
He said: "It looked deliberate... it didn't look like an accident," he added.
