@NaughtyDrivers Had a similar experience on Xmas Eve where a BMW X3 driver with a phone held up to his ear pulled out in front of me. When I said you shouldn't be driving on the phone, he punched me then rammed me off my bike with his car and drove off. He's been charged and in court next month.

Do you report bad drivers to the Police in the UK?

If you do or have done, or can't because your police force does nothing to support you, please fill out this survey!

Looks similar to what happened to me on Christmas eve. Feel the driver got off lightly. Not clear if he lost his drivers licence either.

@BikeWalkScoot Thanks Hamish. Really nice to have the support. I'm struggling to understand the logic behind quite a few of the comments.

Got knocked over today by a driver that pulled out without observing/indicating whilst I was filtering past stationary traffic on Pimlico Rd, London. Sent me flying across road. My dog was in the basket but unhurt. Hands/knees bruised and scratched. Video submitted to MPS. 😦

@park256895762 @billdaviess I'm not being trolled. Just carry on driving safely and let me cycle safely.

[Nath on a bike @NathanP3333]

@mrog357 Ouch! The dog and I were very lucky. Heal well mate.

@ok_Imhere I don't live near a park. She's been riding with me for 11 years and I'm not going to stop because we got knocked off at slow speed 😊

@katrinwood Thanks Sarah. It's all on HD video. Dog is next to me now and pretty chilled with life!

@billdaviess @park256895762 My dog has been riding in her basket safely for 11 years without distracting me. She has been known to even have a sleep. The basket is purpose made for carrying small dogs like mine. I've done nothing wrong or illegal! https://t.co/5BqzKin6fF

@anneramsey740 I was also knocked over today and caught on my headcam. https://t.co/xLhFBIIEHw

@anneramsey740 Really sorry to hear this but pleased you're okay. Why can't driver's take responsibility for their actions? Running away is pure cowardice. Pleased you've got video evidence. Take care.

An aggressive driver had a go last month and tried to force me off the road. The Met Police say NFA because I put myself in an awkward position.

@MatBurnham @MikeyCycling I think we probably are Justin. There are many cyclists in London operating cameras. If you're a serial bad driver, you'll get caught multiple times by any one of us. We're just not all as loud as the epic @MikeyCycling 😉

@MikeyCycling There are plenty of other cyclists calling out bad driving via online reporting. Any one of us could have also reported him. He'll now have at least 9 points and a big rise is insurance.

[Nath on a bike @NathanP3333]

@anneramsey740 Shocking that a driver would do this purely for entertainment. Likely the driver showing off to his mates because you're female. Well done for having a camera @anneramsey740. Hopefully he'll be considering his future behaviours around cyclists once he's been penalised by the law.

@TweetingYet @MikeyCycling @cyclegaz Just skimmed thru video. Don't see the driver's full face. Does this matter?
