I've seen a few of his clips and I think that he gets away with it because he is a nice guy. But all it needs is one upset driver to get out and batter him.

There is this one fella on YouTube (sonofthewindsinc) who cycles around London day and night.
I get the fact that he's been knocked down before, so I see why he cams. But all he does is indescriminatly shout out car number plates and when he is at the lights or sometimes moving, he produces a red card like a football referee and shows it to the driver.
Also, he very often taps on car windscreens and tells people to put their seat belt on or stop talking on their phone, then shows a red card and cycles off...sorry, but it is really comical.

That is going too far with the red card. His bike is well kitted out though xD

Makes me smile when he pulls his red card out, he does capture some apalling driving but needs to stop acting like a copper, all this 'road traffic violation' stuff and phrases like 'he's finished' when someone does a close pass or other stupid manoeuvre :rolleyes:

I think all head cammers need to stop acting like wannabe coppers.

That was a near miss. See how calm he was when he caught up :0).

He doesn't indiscriminately shout reg's out. Post an example of what you mean.

Quite a few times he is sat at the lights. And at the lights directly opposite a car maybe creeps into the asl or goes over the stop line or something.
Considering the lights are still red he starts to shout across the road "TRAFFIC VIOLATION!" Then he quotes sometimes his own version of the Highway Code. Once the lights turn green he cycles straight across the lights past the offender waving his red card shouting out things like "You"ll been on YouTube within 48hrs or I'm reporting you to the police" all the time waving this red card at the car. Then once past he slips the card back into his bag strap until the next violation appears.
The look on the drivers faces is utter confusion. Then he is gone!
