Absolutely. We've all had the drivers who steam up behind us & leave braking or indeed, overtaking to the last second or two. Dangerous.

Hence the dangerous driving charge & conviction. Good research by the Police there.

The fact there are countless numbers of TV series dedicated to showcasing the ill effects of driving and car dependency should serve as a wake up call for those in power.

He'll enjoy the police action, I expect.

Interesting article. Lack of roads policing is the biggest problem as with all bad driving behaviour. And lack of proper resourcing for journey-cam reporting, as we see in A&S where reports of dodgy plates are bottom of the pile and nothing concrete seems to happen when they're processed.

How can this not have been dangerous driving? Suspended sentence and 12 month ban.

Regrettably the jury acquitted him of that, CPS thought it stood reasonable prospects. Jury = drivers presumably. Careless carries far lower sentencing. Awful for the family. Feeble ban.

I have the Evo folding ones, they fit nicely on a rear pocket. An old 4-magnet job which is now glued & magneted to a cheap reflective vest serves well in the winter.
