What it says is that on this one occasion, having had the benefit of a high profile campaign, the CPS decided it was not in the public interest to prosecute. So it isn't really anything except them avoiding possible embarrassment. If you or I were to do what he did on the roads tomorrow we'd probably get done the same*. It does not have the benefit of being a stated case as there was no court case so means the square root of fuck all.
*I have a warrant card, draw your own conclusions (though I don't trust The Met any more than the rest of you).
