Just to chip in with a thought ...

As well as posting a full version to another place, post an edited version that just shows the RLJ onto Youtube as well. Include text explaining the situation and referring interested veiwers to the full version.

Thats an excellent idea
 
So, what is there to stop you posting his picture all over the internet.....You can't let him have the last laugh can you...:smile:

me: So you have... well I've taken it to the Police... your turn...

Nah, we're all just as childish :biggrin:...have you taken it to the police though? You'd have to make sure the police actually speak to him otherwise it would just be an empty threat.

I doubt they would prosecute or anything, but a quick chat with Mr Plod might deflate his ego.

dont tell him, let it be a surprise, hes obviously thick so he will trip himself up when put on the spot.
Of course I do have the emails from YouTube which include the comments he made on the website... and the mild threat too.

I wonder if they'd be interested in a confession that he wasn't concentrating and knew he'd run the light.... :tongue:

I'm sure his employer would be interested to hear about his Youtube behaviour.
Don't think they give a toss judging by the fob-off email I eventually got from them (and I think they pointed him to the website in the first place).

If they didn't care what his driving was like from the video, I doubt they'd care that he had a problem with it. I don't know why, but bus firms seem to have incredibly useless complaints departments.

Let us know how reporting it to the police goes.

A few things to try here if you don't feel ARRIVA are taking it seriously as well as police, if he has made threats of physical harm, mild or not, especially if its with a ARRIVA bus, take it to the next level!

Blank him out of the video(eyes or face - think adobe will let you add another layer over video, or use 'annotations' to cover his face in youtube), still keep his voice in and daft excuse for not stopping. I'll stick your video up too if you want.

Sorry people. Don't think I'm bothering with the Police, saw on a thread on here that they don't follow up if over 14 days past the incident (assuming that they follow up at all - not a given if any of my previous encounters with them are a marker to go by!).

YouTube bravely pulled the video (again) and after another email to them with the relevant legislation/explanation as to why it was legal they did precisely nothing (i.e. no reply or anything) and just removed it.

I have re-re-posted it, and now it blurs the video and pixelates it so you can't see the muppet's driver's face... surely they must be happy with that!!!!!!

I think it's irking him somewhat, which is a shame... no, really. ;)

New video is here.
