He'll just tear up the letter with contempt.
Excellent work – thanks for keeping us safe ๐๐ฎ๐ฉโโ๏ธ๐๐๐๐๐ฅ๏ธ๐๐๏ธ๐
Yeah Mikey, they are mad!
Too many idiots drive like that going into Richmond Park. Itโs not as if they donโt know there are lots of people of all ages cycling in and out of that area.
No solid white lines
Reckless Mikey . ๐คฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ
Must get ahead. Must get ahead. Must get a head.
Warning letters might have more effect if they were copied to the Insurance companies.
All so he can get to Sheen Gate car park 10 seconds sooner.
Hi Mikey,
How insane was that driving? Bloody pathetic they have got away with that. This is why cycling in the middle of the lane is important to stop these idiots killing people.
That was a crazy overtaking manoeuvre and only a warning letter!!! ๐
disaster if someone else did the same thing coming the other way…. it's only a matter of time they'll be in an accident๐ข
Highlight of the clip was that Triumph Acclaim
The 20mph limit should have made it even less attractive as an option …
๐๐๐๐๐๐
Such selfisb people who risk the lives of others just because they cant be bothered to wait a few seconds or slow for a few moments.
Taking the Primary position should've discouraged this overtake. Some people just don't get it ๐ฎ.
"Impatience Can Be A Killer?" ๐ซStay Safe Mikey!!!๐ซ & Thanks For Reporting These Clowns!!! ๐คก
Good luck with your "reform the met" effort.๐๐๐
Thereโs lunacy and danger everywhere in London, whether youโre on the road, the street or underground. London is a cesspit.
I'm always amazed at the number of blind corner passes when I'm on the bike. Some places it seems particularly prevalent, and they're usually narrow or single lane.
Heโs going 20mphโฆ. Road widens as you go round, heโs going slow enough to react to anything that could happen. There is Nothing wrong with his driving ๐
What a let off, as blatant as blatant gets and not even a driving without due care…
Having been an oncoming cyclist with cars passing other cyclists on blind corners/summits, I can say it's not fun.
Some experience bonnet surfing for these met officers, might help them with their future decision making
Warning might be warranted in some circumstances but driving like this needs prosecuting I feel. It just feels lazy from the Police and this protecting motorists all the time will just lead to more accidents on the road.
I've been nearly hit off from blind overtakes just like this one.
I wonder what would have happened if a large vehicle had been coming the opposite way, oh! wait, I think I got it now. ๐๐คโฐ๏ธโฐ๏ธ๐ชฆ
IAM sick and tired of car drivers. I live in a small village in Cornwall and the amount of local people on their phone whilst driving through the village.
Years ago one of our drivers did a blind corner like that. He wrote the van off and put a woman in hospital, Head on collision.
looks alright to me .hes on the right your sat on the left to you it may be shit but not to me
Triumph Acclaim spotted at the start๐
He had a better view around the corner than you did.
I love that you have a system for public reporting to the Met. They even respond to your videos. That fact alone is a win. The prosecutions are a bonus.
The police in my jurisdiction would probably fine me for wasting their time with my efforts of calling out bad driver's.
More power to you Mikey, in keeping the citizens of London safer. Keep up the good work.
Nothing wrong with that overtake.
