I've had several wrong side drivers and a motorcyclist given prosecution notices by the police, and with little difference to these examples, so something odd is going on.
=====================================================================
My camera: GoPro Hero 10 Black - amzn.to/3zARTPk
GoPro Hero 9 Black - amzn.to/39oZFBw
The GoPro headstrap I mount the camera to: amzn.to/2PyVrjI
A good quality MicroSD card that is fast enough for this 4K camera: amzn.to/31qhf3G
Spare GoPro Hero 9/10 original batteries - amzn.to/3CFbZtz
(clone batteries are cheaper, but perhaps less reliable)
GoPro Hero 7 battery and charger: amzn.to/3lQ4vgr
I also use:
An Insta360 Go 2 microcamera: amzn.to/3e9Jz13
An Insta360 One R 360 degree camera: amzn.to/3eaMshX

I’ve been on this corner as a cyclist turning left to complete the Regents Park Loop. I must say I’m always very cautious after watching these videos. I’m alarmed that no prosecutions are being made for these impatient drivers. We go back again to question what is the police doing to combat misdemeanours in the society? Pls start a petition Mikey and I’m sure you’ll get a lot of support!

I reported a guy in a fiat abarth doing well over 120 mph and across all lanes of the motorway, even doing a hint of sliding around a lorry to get back from the hard shoulder to lane 3. Sent HD footage back and front. Police sent me a letter saying I needed to have one independent witness inside my car, despite having a mercedes with 2 other people next to me who saw exactly the same. On that basis they refused to go any further. The point is, that abarth driver came out of nowhere like a missile. and disappeared even quicker. Someone is going to be killed.

@@Manu-Official that sort of response is worth escalating, the idea that clear video footage cannot be actioned unless you have an independent human witness in your car with you at the time of recording is just ridiculous. If you had video footage of you and your car being attacked by a road rager with a tyre iron, what that officer is suggesting is that if you don't have an independent witness in your car, they can't do anything. I can't help but think that if you had a passenger in your car witness the Abath incident, that officer would come up with another reason why they couldn't do anything about it. And if you could meet that requirement, they'd make up yet another reason why they couldn't investigate.

Good to see you’ve got back up from others when you’re getting grief. If people stop getting involved when dangerous things occur to others, the world would be a very sad and dangerous place. Good on you Mikey. I wish there were people like you on the tube stopping people trying to cop a feel of others. I was 14 when this happened to me and everyone just lifted their newspapers or looked the other way. It’s people like you that put a bit of faith in me and others that there are good people on this planet.

I think we are all going to have to start sending letters to the department responsible for TORs, and perhaps an MP or two, to complain that they are deliberately ignoring evidence of breaches of legislation. They are suddenly not living up to their mission of "Tackling the vehicles, drivers, and road user behaviour that cause the greatest risk on the roads." I wonder if it is data collation time, and "Somebody" is trying to keep the figures artificially low by not processing actionable events.

I suspect political will may be conflicted just like the public reactions, as surely the law could make it so a fine could be partly used to pay for any staffing required, especially if fines were based on income. And looks like the process can be quite automated anyway with a special uploads website and if notices can be sent to a registered smartphone for that number plate and if police issued certified recording hardware with included upload feature to prevent video tampering delaying prosecution

Keep going Mikey, I think its great what you are trying to achieve. People need to be held accountable.
