The singer was enjoying a late-night pedal through the capital with husband Stephen Belafonte on Thursday when she swerved in front of a cab outside the couple's hotel.
The taxi driver came within a whisker of colliding with Brown - but he clearly saw the funny side, yelling at her: "You stupid Spice Girl!"
An onlooker says, "Mel was lucky the driver saw her in time otherwise it could have been a nasty accident."
