It's time to taken action to get these things off our roads FULL STOP.
Absolutely nobody needs one.
I lived in the Highland of Scotland for more than 20 years and absolutely nobody who went off-road used one because they were too big, too heavy, too wide, and didn't have buck/boot space

I was reminded of this nasty incident from 2019 the other day. Generally, tailgating isn't worth submitting to the police in my area, but this case was close enough and dangerous enough to be taken to court. The driver was convicted & even had to pay me compensation! www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1Cd...

The trouble with stationary drivers using phones is when they move off. This one missed the traffic setting off in front of her and ended up jumping the red light quite late.

Road closure near me... Very heavy traffic on the country lanes. Explained it to a driver. Hope it was helpful.

On the extremely unlikley chance that anyone recognises this cyclist, please get them to contact me as the police have confirmed they're moving forward with a prosecution for the driver so I could use a second witness if it goes to court.
I hit a milestone today
This was my 1,000th traffic offence report to the Met Police. And I've got a 78% success rate. so 780 drivers have received warning letters, points, fines and dates in court. I've been to court 15 times with two more lined up over the next 6 months.
Here's to the next 1,000

The fact there are countless numbers of TV series dedicated to showcasing the ill effects of driving and car dependency should serve as a wake up call for those in power.
