@AshleyNealDI @theJeremyVine Be interested to see your analysis. As a driver it was obvious the (more vulnerable) road user in front would need to move lane. Basic motoring anticipation - confirmed by the head movements, then hand signal. Sheer impatience and lack of care on the driver's part.

@MikeyCycling @MikeyCycling - does the Met mind you 'hunting for' mobile phone drivers? My local force have warned me not to 'alter the course of my journey' to get clearer footage of an offence, ie cycle back in the opposite direction, or they'll ban me from submitting.

@Mad_1nventor To be fair, I think the other cyclist was correct. Bit of a dodgy move for the pedestrians (it's not a crossing) with a vehicle coming up behind, though you'd be justified in reporting the Audi (...) for the close pass.

@smallfoggyhouse though the prevalence of warning letters also makes me want to report every little thing so they're more likely to get a repeat incident and thus a prosecution, ho hum
