Reporting crap drivers to operation snap in Dorset UK
Canβt believe Lib Dem Conference was already a week ago!
Hereβs a quick look at what I packed into an incredible (and very long!) weekend.
@mrmarkhodson.bsky.social could you drop me a message please?

I did about 12 miles yesterday,
check out the latest videos for a whole bunch of bad drivers endangering others (not just me!) and ignoring the rules for their own personal benefit, sometimes no benefit at all.

Driver gets upset because I filtered past him and slotted in, He purposefully tailgates the car in front and tries to squeeze through a gap that isnt there.
Even after overtaking me they tailgate the car in front of them.
Did I delay them at all? of course not.

This is almost a textbook example of how highway code rule H3 should work.
My only minor criticism is I would have preferred it if they had stopped before starting to turn, it wasn't terrible obvious if they were going to stop.

First week of solar stats since getting the export tariff, interesting numbers
Saving Β£100 a WEEK compared to no solar and no EV!

Last December I received emails from the police stating these drivers had been issued NIP.
3 close passes
3 people parking on zig zags for crossings
1 driver going through a red light
1 driver using their phone whilst driving (also parked blocking a shared path)

trying to find statistics on the safety of a pelican/toucan crossing vrs an underpass.
obviously... some drivers don't stop, where as an underpass has ASB issues.
thoughts?

Yeh look... see I do drive! lots of crap parking and the odd bad driver in here too.

@mrmarkhodson.bsky.social how would you prosecute this?

3 bad drivers, one commute.

It is scary what will provoke some people to behave so badly on the roads, my perceived offense?
A: existing
B: not diving left into the parking spaces
Will this meet the threshold for dangerous driving? I hope so.

just oblivious...

How is this happening? Dorset police arent prosecuting close passes unless its REALLY close.

Casually cycling to the office, not even looking for phone drivers, concentrating on filtering safely.
when it is so blatant you don't even need to look and the insta360 x3 captures it all.

its easy enough to deal with an abandoned e-scooter or e-bike, just take a few seconds to pick it up and move it to one side then report it to beryl later.

Cyclists treating red lights as give ways occasionally bad...
Drivers ignoring road signs every 2 minutes...
Absolutely fine... Apparently.

Please stay left on shared paths and cycle paths

I thought it was only cyclists that ran red lights?

Been a busy couple of days, honestly cba to link the videos seperately... go watch them.
It is really depressing how bad some drivers are and how the mist descends when they percieve a cyclist (or 2) getting in their way
