Yes, let us know what they said about you overtaking the stopped blue car,
shooting to the left in front of his bonnet and crossing the stop line.

Good, I hope they fine you for stopping in a yellow box junction.
The motorists were doing nothing wrong, one pulled in a little sharply,
but the road looks narrow, and it is no more of a bad manoeuvre than you
did at the traffic lights, cutting across 2 cars - you would have really
been in **** street if the lights had turned green then.

a guy I knew, he reported someone for knocking his bike over, the car driver
and several nasty looking blokes turned up at his home and advised him to
drop the complaint, happily he saw sense rather than stars and did just
that.

Dear Chief Constable

I wish to make a formal complaint regarding a cyclist : Mr Simon Mason of
Tranby Lane, Anlaby who I understand has a meeting with one of your officers on
Friday 11 May 2012 at 11:00.

Mr Mason is a persistent law breaker himself; he films other road users on a
secret camera incorporated in a pair of sunglasses. The resulting videos show
his own transgressions as much as anyone else's.

I understand that he is discussing some of his latest videos of supposed law
breaking with the officers on Friday. I would like to suggest that your
officers take particular notice of Mr Mason's own actions in the videos which
he provides. They will see that he has a total disregard for the Road
Traffic Acts himself - in particular jumping red lights.

He also has a total disregard for other road users.

If Mr Mason does not pass over any videos which show himself at fault - I do
have a full catalogue of all the videos stored on his machine which I can make
available to your officers.

Yours faithfully



PS I understand that three of you officers have been investigating a complaint,
made by Mr Mason, on a full time basis since last August. I wonder how they
are getting on?

================================================== ====================


Letter on its way - as we say.

Yes do that, if you can give us details of the witness statement you
made and the crime number.

Looking at the video I can see why Simon was unhappy with the drivers of
the van and the blue car. But I think Simon isn't living in the real
world if he doesn't realise it's of his own making.

I cycle about 200+ miles a month. Not much compared to other people but
not a small amount either. Apart from bad driving I very rarely get any
problems from other motorists and it's because I don't do stuff like
cycle to the front of a queue and hold up two lanes of traffic.

Personally I think there's an etiquette that cyclists and motorists need
to follow. For cyclists it's largely about not making pointless
manoeuvres that slow drivers down, "Share the road" works both ways.

An even better idea might be to video the meeting and then post a copy
on here, how about it?
