“I think this makes Operation Snap virtually pointless and leaves me very vulnerable to dangerous drivers,” the cyclist, who submitted the close pass footage to Cheshire Police, said
How in the ever loving Christ is video footage of the incident “insufficient evidence”? That’s way more reliable than any witness statement. I hope the cyclist escalates that nonsense.
Y’know with that, uh, A.I. stuff and that photo shop computer things, you cant trust videos, only fuzzy accounts from dodgy witnesses, y’know theres those studies that found human eyewitness accounts are like the worst, so yeah, argument won. -the police maybe /s
Actually, you can barely trust the public at all. Only police officer’s statements are trustworthy and I didn’t see shit. Now get out before me and my colleagues don’t witness you falling down the stairs four times on your own.
What’s worse is that there is a witness statement - the OP standing there loudly complaining about being run off the road. We were able to investigate crimes even before video cameras existed. Yet now neither the video nor the OP victim statement is somehow sufficient.
You now need a camera positioned so that it captures an image they can use to estimate the passing distance. Having one on the seat stem, looking backwards with the top of the mudguard in view at the bottom seems to work.

I expect the cops still won’t give a fuck. A 1m long flexible pole with a nail taped to the end might be better.
