is a Private Prosecution an option?

Lacking cameras and witnesses who can fully and independently give the plate number... I can't see how it could be successful.

My new bike arrives in a couple of weeks, I am going to camera up with GoPro Sessions both front and rear facing.

Lesson here:

1. You can't rely on a city of CCTV
   
2. You can't rely on the police to investigate
   
3. If you want action you must have cameras recording all the time
   
4. Get good insurance whatever happens
   
   

I'm so glad I had the insurance. I lost a beloved bike I'd be riding for a decade and would've continued riding. A replacement is due, but this is only because of the insurer (Hiscox).
