Today I grassed, would you ever?

+1 with out thinking twice. wish more people could be bothered to stop a plod and tell them.

All drivers usually see of me is my fingers to my head faux phone call style and the silently mouthed words G E T OFF THE FUCKING P H O N E C U N T

The mental image you doing that Hippy just made me laugh.

fucking class, I can just imaging it's mad max on a horse screaming that.

I mean really. You're in a car getting told off by a guy on a horse. You must look like a right twat.

He saw me laughing and returned my smile and wave. Complete class.

Those are the moments that restore my faith in policing when you've just shared an ASL with two motorcycle cops.

I once saw a cabbie driving along whilst reading the tabloid newspaper on his lap. he stopped at the lights so I went to say something to him through his open window. As I started speaking he blurted out the classic 'sorry mate I didn't see you' even though he hadn't actually hit me, or cut me up etc. It must have been his instinct kicking in.

My reply, of course, was: "I know you didn't see me, you are reading the fucking paper!!!" He blushed.

People really are amazing stupid about this. Last summer I was overtaken on the Embankment by a guy in a convertible fucking Ferrari with the top down and phone clamped to head. Did he really, really think no one would notice?

I'm glad to report that he got about 200 yards past me, blithely overtook a moto-plod and got yanked.

I say well done mate. I see at least one person either talking or texting on a phone everyday. No exaggeration.

Sounds more like a gross understatement to me.

I find it fucking annoying that police often warn drivers not fine them and issue points unlike if you RLJ.

100% support on that one-phew!

I wouldn't approach a policeman when on my bike as I would get done myself for having an illegal bike!

Sounds more like a gross understatement to me.

Yeah I just read that back. Biiiig understatement.

Sounds more like a gross understatement to me.

you are not wrong, i see at least 10/20 on my commute everyday

Your 'your' is an example of how you're wrong though, cunt.

today going eastwood over tower bridge...

I saw a driver mount the pavement a couple of days ago, making a turn out of a side street onto a main road, as they were only using one hand to turn the wheel cos they were talking on the phone with the other. WAC. Failed to catch up with him, but not sure what I would have done anyway.

definitely the right thing to do.
I reported a mini cab up here, for very dangerous driving down broad street.
terrifying behaviour.

i aint no grass.

I noticed in Italy that drivers seemed to cradle their phones with their shoulders, so that they could have both hands free for gesticulation while they were talking. ...

Mobile phones should have a motion sensor in them so they will only work when you are stationary, would stop suicidal pedestrians and homicial drivers and the few cyclsits I've seen riding and texting at the same time.

I noticed in Italy that drivers seemed to cradle their phones with their shoulders, so that they could have both hands free for gesticulation while they were talking. I wish I was joking.

Did you also notice in Italy how there are LOADS of bikes, and there don't seem to be any rules of the road, but it still looks safer than over here?

Today I grassed, would you ever?

Yep, I would. Well done.

They're only Italians, not real people?

hahahaha that is brilliant!

Saw a officer mounted on horseback have a go at a driver once for the same thing at Wellington Arch. Funniest thing I'd ever seen due to the height difference and his very loud voice yelling "You! Yes you! What are you doing? Put the phone down!"

i wish i had seen this. hilarious!

A van pulled up to come out of a side road yesterday saw me coming, I could see he was talking on the phone at the same time, as he looks straight at me he continues out. I slam on the brakes (yes I am a lamer with both front and back it's an OTP bought like that), but thank fuck cos otherwise I'd never have stopped. NA dhe' have had a nice new Littigator logo smeared down the side of his van.

He was so close that as he straightened up I could come along his near side and slap the back corner of his van with ease.

Some mobile phones already have motion sensors in them. However, how do you distinguish between movement in a car and movement such as walking, travelling on a bus or on a train?

Doh!
