What could possibly go wrong? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-191238 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 19:05:03 +0000 chdot 191238@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Another one!</p> <p><a href="http://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/angry-cyclist-films-school-run-mum-eating-cereal-behind-the-wheel-of-her-land-rover-10324967.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/angry-cyclist-films-school-run-mum-eating-cereal-behind-the-wheel-of-her-land-rover-10324967.html</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-134545 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 10:31:47 +0000 tarmac jockey 134545@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@WC - I used to know Vic when he was in the band Huckleberry with James Yorkston and Reuben Taylor, can't recall the forth member? They used to practice at the Inch. Reuben also used to work in the electrical shop on the Dalkeith Road, OMNI Electrics. Good lads one and all. Last time I bumped into James he was finding it hard coming to terms with life size posters of himself all over central Edinburgh. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-134544 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 10:21:39 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 134544@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Magnatom had one that I think wound up with a truck driver being charged a couple of years ago. There's no hard and fast rule, though, on what the police will adn won't charge.</p> <p>The cereal was bad; but I showed the police a video of a driver overtaking at speed in the city straight into my path coming the other way and after initial interest they then didn't even bother taking a copy of the video (after asking me to put it onto CD). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-134538 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 09:41:09 +0000 fimm 134538@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I read of a case in London where a driver was prosecuted on cycle cam footage - it is particularly interesting because the cyclist with the cam was not the victim of the bad driving and the cyclist who was the victim didn't give evidence.</p> <p>I'll see if I can find the link.</p> <p>Edit: <a href="http://www.croydoncyclist.co.uk/rx11axp-result/">Blog post</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-134502 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 22:30:36 +0000 Edinburgh Cycle Training 134502@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>it could be a start </p> <p><a href="http://images2.mysupermarket.co.uk/Products_1000/92/000992.jpg?v=3" rel="nofollow">http://images2.mysupermarket.co.uk/Products_1000/92/000992.jpg?v=3</a> </p> <p>but it could be an entirely different cereal. the video isn't conclusive. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-134501 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 22:02:09 +0000 Kenny 134501@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>This is the first time I've ever seen the police using cyclist video footage to charge someone. Annoying that they will charge a man eating cereal, but not another man dangerously driving and nearly knocking a cyclist over; but it's a start. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=11716#post-134496 Mon, 25 Nov 2013 21:19:38 +0000 LaidBack 134496@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-25087651">BBC Scotland short report</a></p> <p>Maybe a thread on this already I can't see.
