#RoadCC was reporting on the #IAMRoadSmart presser today (https://www.mynewsdesk.com/uk/iam-roadsmarts-media-centre/pressreleases/record-numbers-of-cyclists-send-footage-of-dangerous-driving-to-the-police-as-more-than-half-of-motorists-admit-they-dont-know-how-much-space-to-leave-when-overtaking-3392546)
The stats (numbers of cyclists submitting video footage of poor driving to the police have doubled from 7,249 in 2021 to 15,779 in 2024, according to a FOI) does not include #METPlod.
They mention "poor driving". I do wonder if that includes mobile phone offenses or just close passes? I mostly report the earlier to #MetPlod as they rarely go after the rest.
What's your experience?
