Our local police do Operation Snap (bike/dashcam reporting) and have run Operation Close Pass (unmarked police bikes spotting-and-catching bad overtakes) a few times. I got a close pass on camera today but my road positioning wasn't great (I flinched and moved left because I heard them coming). What do you think - report or not?
I think it was too close and also stupid place to overtake (http://osm.org/go/0ER1zhcnw-?layers=C&m the narrow bit of Chapel Lane West Winch heading east approaching the two T junctions) but I've had far worse. Camera was mounted on top of the stem, so centre of the bike, in case it matters. What's your opinion of the sample pic? Shall I stop off on my way to tonight's BUG and measure the road repair shown? (I'm not posting the video because the local police ask you to report it to them first - I don't think this still with no identifying marks will prejudice things.)
