High Street Kensington is dangerous enough without a segregated cycle lane, and then add in distracted phone drivers, nightmare.

My daily lunch time viewing. Excellent work you do Mikey in trying make the roads a safer place to be 👏
Sorry I just have a question regarding the law. As long as it's mounted you are allowed to touch it? Is that right?
Going to regret not spending a few quid on a cradle…
But he was so sly about it… not sly enough to fool a real phone traffic sleuth (like Mikey.) Thank you, Mikey.
MAPA confirmed by police on the Tesla phone driver I reported yesterday. Likely 6 points and £200 fine?
Noticed the drivers seemed to trying to hide it below the window it did not work nice catch Mikey.
seriously ! get a life…..
Does the video thumbnail reflect what you think of the driver?
Mike, could you tell me the law of videos playing on a dash mounted phone?
Not touching it of-course (say listening to music on youtube)
Thanks!
Lets hope you got another one Mikey.
As of late your getting less and less feedback from our wonderful judiciary. This leads me to think they don’t like all the work your giving them
Oooh he gone down to Kensington……. all celebs and mega rich down there
New V5C issued about 2 months later. 🤔
You don't half get about.
Holding the phone that low down is a further distraction for the driver, taking their eyes away from the windscreen. These people deserve punishment. Well done Mikey. Stay safe👍👍👍
Well in mickey much respect, at least you are trying to keep our roads safe, much appreciated!👍👍👍
caught my own phone driver today Mikey. told him to put the phone down, he had the gall to roll his window down and tell me to "SHUT UP", then sped off. unfortunately my gopro had ran out of charge 🙁
Hi Mikey, I can't help noticing that most vehicles seem to be ignoring the 20mph speed limit which I believe is in force all over London. Wonder if there is a way you can catch those drivers? I'm imagining you'd need a speed measuring device, wonder how that would work in law and in terms of reporting offenders. Just a thought.
It’s always those luxury car drivers isn’t it
Spot on, well detected
Good catch, Mikey.
At 0:14 we get the BMW driver who didn't see you (or did, but chose to pull across anyway). Then the white Toyota at 0:29 who appears to start moving before checking their mirrors. Then the phone user, and then the van driver, all in one short stretch on a London road. Makes me glad that I got out of London when I had the chance!
Thanks Mikey, great catch 🫵🏻⭐️🙏🏻
Wouldn't it be a good – and profitable – idea for the police to employ police-cyclists to do this?
Get a phone holder. But not 1 that sticks to the windscreen, also illegal.
How much is a hands free kit? Stupid as stupid is
Well caught
