  • It's all going on in this one short stretch of Westbourne Terrace in West London. Don't try to tell me that cyclists are more law breaking than drivers, as groups of people. The science says otherwise. Phone driver, angry van man, and wrong side red light jumper. I can understand why the July 2021 red light jump wasn't prosecuted by the Met - there are some complex rules around red light prosecutions and this didn't quite meet the necessary standards. I'm glad he got an FPN for the wrong side red light jump in Aug 2020 though, going the wrong side of a keep left sign and the median is really not very good driving. The angry white van man - didn't bother to report that, and the female phone driver, I didn't have enough evidence. The Met would probably have sent her a warning letter if I had reported it which would've been good, but I had too many other reports and stuck with the more serious ones.

      The guy in the truck invaded his lane. Not only the trucker is wrong there but he wanted to start a fight with him. Besides he's far from being a coward. He got a lot of aggression in these videos alone, he got rammed twice by angry drivers and he surely have taken punches in the face defending cyclist rights and pedestrian safety.
      Brian, this man is taking a lot of heat for your safety. If that's making him a coward then I don't know what definition you are referring to. Aware citizens is a thing of the past, it's not seen with good eyes and goes almost against the comfort of other citizens who drives recklessly without consequences.
      I lost a friend because of reckless driving. He was a cyclist. Remember one thing, drivers have a car but cyclist have their bicycles. Let that sink in for a second. You are calling coward a man who is making service for free and taking a lot of heat for your safety.

    I like watching your videos. And I love what you do.
    I do not ride my cycle on the roads as I do not feel safe enough with careless motorists, so keep fit riding along the beach promenade. So anything anyone does to keep roads safe, I applaud. As a student para I see far too many RTCs.
    What I do not like however, is when you antagonise drivers you are unsure about.
    For instance, “are they using their phone?” Means you are unsure.
    So to make a scolding comment when they drive passed does nothing but antagonise them which can get then angry in which case they are no longer paying 100% attention to what they are doing. Which is counter intuitive to what you are doing.

    Think this guy should educate the drivers instead of reporting them, just thinking about the human side of things, yes everyone makes mistakes but you have to remember, people have kids to provide for, keep a roof over their families heads, some probably look after their mother and/or father. There is a lot of issues people have to deal with in this life and to just have extra issues such as 6 points, license revoked, expensive insurance could lead some having mental health issues just because of how stressful life is. I’m sure this guy has done something wrong before but wasn’t punished for it.... I hope this guy does not have this channel purely for money, if he’s going to do this, do it forever in England including the police.

    Do like the police used to do!! carry a whistle!! and use it, to draw attention or even better!! electric bike horn(a really loud one).lol. Wow. Your really giving it out this day shouting 'oh, oh', then the middle finger. I have a idea carry a whistle!! when after you catch them on their phone!!..instead of a tap at the window, give them a couple of toots or a big loud whistle blow. That should do it!! lol.
