Seemed to me that it’s a good idea to carry a camera when cycling by bike but apparently not much use – maybe if there is violence and not just a threat?

It does not say anywhere that the film cannot be used as evidence. They decided not to prosecute as they didn’t have enough evidence, which is completely different.
I am sure that bloke will be able to film something soon enough that will go to court if this thing happens often enough. Asking him to repeat the abuse won’t have helped as it may be argued that he made him do the outburst. I’m sure he’ll get someone charged one day.

The rider has been discussing this in his blog

he post on bikeradar and this has now been in the guardian too.

I don’t get why he reported it to Thames Valley when it happened in the Met?? Why would TVP be interested, maybe he could report it to South Yorkshire and see if they are interested?? Don’t think it is anywhere near as obvious or clean cut as that article implies.
