Who can I report a driver to?
On my way back today I came very very close to being knocked into a dual carriageway due to an impatient driver. What's the best way to report them? I have their reg number and video evidence which is below.

A1 northbound on Westrn Bypass at rush hour!
Sorry mate thats the normal on that junction, that 10 mile section is like that. Anyways that section does have cameras on it, report it to the Police |

Isnt this the sort of thing that the non emergency 101 number is for ?
Or just pay a visit to your local cop shop with a copy of the video on CD for them. |

If you report this to the police be prepared for apathy, it is very difficult for them to convict on video evidence alone.
I had a van pass me on my pushbike very close across double whites while I was travelling at 20mph forcing an oncoming car onto the opposite pavement, all caught on camera. I went to the local police station, they would not even look at it, I then gave it to a friend whose a Special, he passed it onto traffic and they said they didn't think they would be able to convict without the person in the oncoming car being found as a witness, unfortunately his reg could not be read from the footage. To be honest I wouldn't bother trying again, all you can hope is Darwin gets them without doing too much damage to anyone else... |

I'm not sure what happened there like, to me I reckon he thought you were pulling onto the main carriageway and had a mare. I think I would have been at least as upset as you!

Did you also have the left turn indicator on?

As bikers when we filter though traffic do we not get as a close to another vehicle as that in the video?
