Getting the guys driving the wrong way at Gandalf seems legit, but busting people looking at their phones in stationary traffic is trifling.

[@CyclingMikey]

Stationary phone drivers are still dangerous for many reasons: 1) The people using their phones when stationary are very often the same people using them when moving. They only put the phone down because I caught them. 2) They are entirely unaware of people crossing the road around them. See here where a phone driver almost hits someone in the queue twitter.com/phonekills/status/1491526464520560641?s=20 See this other tweet where a 5 year old child is almost hit by a phone driver who was stationary: x.com/cmdkenyon/status/1724483042046067052?s=20 And another: x.com/WelshBrendan2/status/1796099766557774129 3) They are entirely unaware of filtering cyclists and motorcyclists, despite the Highway Code requiring us to be aware of this. 4) Phone distraction lasts for a good time after you put the phone away. Even if you're only using the phone in each traffic queue at each junction (which is highly unlikely), then you're constantly topping up your mental distraction and are basically as disabled as a drunk driver. 5) Phone driving is worse than drink driving for distraction rates, and that's why it's part of the #Fatal4 behaviours that police target heavily. 6) Here's a police officer telling you that he has been on the scene for 3 fatal RTCs involving drivers who were stationary whilst using their phones, and then moved off and caused a collision: twitter.com/markandcharlie/status/1604073330751197184?s=20&t=uj8sgu7spu4cTyDqqqds2g 7) Policing phone drivers will help them stop other traffic offences too - it's vanishingly rare that someone only breaks a single traffic law like mobile phone use. 8) Parliament recently chose to strengthen the mobile phone law around stationary phone use because it's dangerous and the science supports this. I'm really not interested in this nonsense of "it's not dangerous when stationary, because it clearly is and it's clearly still very appropriate to catch these drivers.

It was good you waited rather than contact police at another time to give footage... the officers seemed pretty good and fair with the suspect, no matter how many times he tried to trick the public in thinking the officers were assaulting him hoping they would all come out criticise the police officers so he can slip free.

What a takedown! 🤣 (By you, not the cops). It was bizarre how there were about ten of them and none seemed interested in speaking to the prime witness for ages.

[@CyclingMikey]

Thanks! 👍 I used to play a fair bit of checking roller hockey, and that gives you a sense of how to destructively redirect someone's momentum.

@@CyclingMikeykeep up the good work. Just don't start wearing a batman suit! 😜 Stay safe man.

First secure you detained person, get the search done, then do the other stuff. As soon as I heard S23, I knew they suspected drug dealing.

[@JosephShambrook]

Everyone here is talking about the old merc merks and no-one mentioning that (alleged) dealer takedown! Great awareness from you Mikey, nice one.

[@bagz]

U know what, when I first watched these videos I thought you were a sad jobsworth! But after seeing more and more videos I actually commend what you do, and the way you do it.

[@josephbrennan-davison]

Can't see any comments about you stopping that criminal. But brilliant job Mikey, you intervening was brave and just the right amount of force to stop him!

[@BF-eb4xs]

Confused by the guys reaction who got out and wanted a selfie? He stormed out like he wanted to deck Mickey… yet switched up so fast? He went from wanting to murder Mickey, to having a normal chat lol in seconds

[@SKBKER]

'Wanting' and 'can' are two different things

[@debramitchell53]

The little guy was desperate to show what a big man he was in front of the woman, but he has instead made himself look like an idiot to thousands of people😀

[@GG-ml3vr]

Nothing "normal" about that chat,ive worked doors for 30 years and he was what id describe as unsettling,you never turn your back or take your eyes off these people.

[@adammiles4479]

Impulsive

[@Oakland510]

@@GG-ml3vr was it the fake wig that made you feel he’s unsettling ? He’s about as threatening as a 3 year old

[@craymex]

Smooth with the ladies as always.... 'Oh my god, you're a hero', to which Mickey responds 'No, no, no on my GoPro'

[@Marcel1234]

this guy is right. you are doing it wrong

[@CyclingMikey]

He isn't - there is no current better way to change the ways of phone using drivers. Here's why: Speaking generally, you might think people will change after just being spoken to, but here's my experience: * Almost no driver will change their law breaking behaviours if I, just an "oik on a bike" ask them to. * A few drivers will change their ways after a police officer gives them words of advice. Most drivers will just go back to using the phone an hour or a day later. * Most people will change their ways after being prosecuted for lawbreaking like this, and yet still some will continue to re-offend until banned. * A few banned drivers will still continue to offend after regaining their licences. * A very few banned drivers will still drive when banned. The break-point in effectiveness is prosecution - drivers need to be prosecuted to have much chance of altering their behaviour(s) for the better. My views and experience are confirmed by a several of traffic officers who tell me exactly the same.

[@stevebone88]

I'm surprised you didnt get arrested for assaulting the fleeing criminal

[@CyclingMikey]

There's a strong defence in law for what I did. Minimum necessary force to help police catch a fleeing suspected offender.

[@holdinfoldin]

please don't say you feel sorry for people you obviously couldn't give a monkeys.

[@tomh6588]

lol - defusing confrontation, catching drug dealers and even impressed the ladies at the end. You're London's version of Batman!
