That most of these motorists are so self-absorbed in their cellphones not to initially notice Cycling Mikey clearly demonstrates they are not concentrating on the highway and their surroundings. Keep up the good work Mikey!
It just proves your point! They don’t even see you when you are right outside their side window. Perhaps an automatic one month ban would concentrate their minds? Keep up the good work !,
People just can’t keep those damn phones out of their hands. We are quite literally obsessed with them, and this is coming from someone who is writing this on a mobile whilst sitting on the toilet 😂
Even the revised penalties for phone use clearly aren't working . . . Until this has the same stigma as drink-driving, idiots will continue to fiddle with their mobiles behind the wheel.
People just don’t care. Unless they are involved in an accident due to phone use by themselves or a third party it’s just on their radar to stop this behaviour. Tougher sentences might help but most of the car owners on this video have plenty money it would seem. Stay safe Mikey👍🏻🏴
Thank you for your comment. Mikey's greatest value is chronicling antisocial drivers for their inevitable future victims. All the best regards to you 🙏
I too noticed that, and reported to the DVLA, as it’s a Cherished Vehicle Recognition Mark. Two reports of VRM Abuse (usually spacing to spell something) & the VRM can be withdrawn; AND the DVLA Can issue a Q plate that stays forever with the vehicle.
Yes Mikey could you do a RUclips video basically showing you catching someone to then uploading it somewhere then sending it off to the 👮 ? That way other people who catch someone law breaking can see how it’s done ? Peace man…The Chief x
Nice work Mikey. The scary thing is how many people are on their phones. I wish the MPS would allow a bulk submission where we just have to put the time the mobile phone interaction is visible. At the moment a four hour cycle takes about 4 times as long editing the videos and doing the submissions.
I thought it would be helpful if you could set up an account in the reporting portal. It could then prefill all the personal information, which in itself takes time.
@@CyclingMikey What is your issue with people picking up their phones if the car is stationary? . . . I can understand when they are driving. Fair enough. But somebody felt the need to beep their horn at you in that video because you weren’t on the right side of the road. That is more dangerous than someone picking up their phone whilst sitting stationary, with their brakes on.
I think they were beeping to warn the driver I was filming as I'm well known in that area. Stationary phone drivers are still dangerous for many reasons: 1) Should a child or shorter person cross in front of them they wouldn't even see them, and would likely then move off, running them over. Notice how WFN364 (google for videos) drives forwards whilst looking at his phone? This is common behaviour from phone drivers. Here's an example someone else caught where the driver almost takes out a pedestrian at a crossing: twitter.com/phonekills/status/1491526464520560641?s=20 2) They are entirely unaware of filtering cyclists and motorcyclists. These drivers are often slow to react when the queue starts moving, and then when someone behind them beeps they drop the phone and hastily move off without even looking. 3) If you imagine these people only use their phones when queuing at the traffic lights, that's terribly naïve. The gardener in LM63BTZ was on the phone whilst driving along, and quite likely had been doing it for some considerable part of his journey. These phone users are constantly using their phones, but it's just much easier to catch them when they're in the queue. 4) Phone distraction lasts for a good 10 minutes after you put the phone away. Even if you're only using the phone in each traffic queue at each junction (which is highly unlikely), then you're constantly topping up your mental distraction and are basically as disabled as a drunk driver. 5) Phone driving is worse than drink driving for distraction rates, and that's why it's part of the #Fatal4 behaviours that police target heavily. 6) Mobile phone laws are about to get even more restrictive because of the govt, police, DfT all recognising the danger of phone use. New laws making it even more strict and easy to catch came in on 25th March 2022. 7) People who knowingly break minor driving law will likely also break more serious laws. Strong policing of minor traffic offences has a strong effect on reducing collisions resulting in killed and seriously injured people. It's good to police these phone drivers. I'm really not interested in this nonsense of "it's not dangerous when stationary, because it clearly is and it's clearly still very appropriate to catch these drivers.
No worries and thank you! I'm fine with being criticised, it's enough to make me question myself sometimes and it's right for me to think about the situation.
I don’t go a single day without seeing someone using their bloody phone. I’m not aware of the statistics on phone use but I’m guessing it’s rising not decreasing. The law isn’t a deterrent. Maybe it’s time phone use was an automatic ban and the car crushed.
The Black Porche "SC10ROS" has an illegal VRN. That's a show plate. Illegal font as there was no space between the year and last 3 indexs. No British standard or manufacturers name. This is an offence.
For goodness sake drivers, grow some balls. If you get caught just be polite. if you can't do the time don't do the crime Porsche number plate illegal af
Nice one Mikey , loved the way you corrected the chap who interviewed you on panarama . You are no vigilante, just merely passing the information on you record. Keep it up .
You should consider polarized lenses for camera.they take away the reflection of sky on the glass and it will make you able to see into car even better than naked eye.
Mikey it amazes me the ammount of people on the phone and they stick out like a sore thumb with there driving gaps ALL DRIVERS you catch should be fined and points! Keep up the good work.
Can't understand why you have to chat to them after filming them,surely you speaking to the drivers through the window is a distraction and is just as dangerous and could cause a accident as well. 🤔
You can hear the other drivers warning them on their horns yet they're still oblivious to it. Those warning these idiots clearly commit the same offences whilst driving and put all cyclists lives in danger as well. Stay safe.
Great captures there Mikey. I might have argued the point regarding cycle lanes with Mr. Audi a little differently. I would have been inclined to point out that although he CAN use the motorway, he doesn't have to. This aligns more closely with "Cyclists can use the cycle lane but don't have to"...as opposed to telling him that he can use the motorway in his car but you can't on your bike & vice versa. I'm not sure if perhaps that's what you were intending to say but it just came out a little differently. Either way, great work again!
@@clappedoutmotor I used to be addicted not to the level of dangerous driving or potentially hurting others but hurting my own mental health as it absorbed all my free time..

Thank you for your comment. I'm convinced that Mikey's greatest value is chronicling antisocial driving for their inevitable future victims. Mikey says that he runs video on his commute and 99% of people are courteous, conscientious drivers. What you are calling an "accident" is really a collision, and not a coincidence for this minority of drivers. You are correct in saying it "will" happen. All the best regards to you 🙏
@@namastezen3300 the only time a collision is not an accident is when the person that caused it set out with the intention of causing a collision. Drivers that use their mobile phones are morons and a danger from the outset, but none of them intend to cause the collisions or injuries that occur. So whilst entirely avoidable, they are still accidents.
Oh, those that got NIPs I would expect most were prosecuted to at least an FPN of 6 points and £200 fine. Only one got an advisory letter, I guess because it wasn't that clear that she was dealing with her emails on the video.
It's so strange how addicted people are to their phone. I put mine in my bag in the boot when I'm driving. Why do they think whatever they're doing on the phone can't wait until they get to their destination? There needs to be a TV advertising campaign to tell people that using their phone when stopped isn't allowed - so many are convinced they're okay to do it at traffic lights.
Getting silly- drivers are ignoring the law. MPs need to think about banning drivers for 1 year automatically or month in prison - otherwise more lives will be lost. Well done Mikey- should get a knighthood for road safety.
I wouldn’t prison unless a accident was involved but agree fully a month ban straight away and if caught in that month a year on tag can’t leave the house …👍
Very well done Mikey, that Porsche had a totally illegal number plate, what are your thoughts on that.I see plenty of them daily and the police do not seem interested.
Absolutely scandalous, so many on the phones. I'm amazed the police haven't contracted out enforcement to do the same as yourself to then get commission from the tickets.
Mikey, don't you think you are creating a dangerous obstruction by placing your bike sometimes on the wrong side of the road and in the path of oncoming traffic in your attempt to sidle up and peer through the mobile phone offenders windows ? Just a thought ?
You are a good man Mikey, but I agree with the gentleman about cycle lanes which have been put there after lengthy consultation at great expense for a safer place for cyclists, the rhetorical answers don't carry any logic, cyclists who refuse to use them because that's there prerogative can't complain about incidents on the road when a safe alternative was there unused...
Fortunately the highway code doesn't agree with you. You're required to share the road with cyclists regardless, and such attitudes are why so many of us run video cameras. Oh, and we will complain about bad driving around us and report it, because they'll still be the fault of the bad driver.
So many people defend themselves on bad driving and how they’re ok to use the phone because their vehicle has stopped in traffic BUT everyone of these shows that they have zero idea of their surroundings until someone (Mikey in this instance) is pretty much level with them, knocking on the window! And yet people will continue to say or claim to have control and acknowledge what’s going on around them. Clearly not!
Nicey nice nice! Well done once again Mikey, hopefully they may learn from the error of their ways, then again probably not. Keep up the great work and stay safe matey.
Hi Mikey, well done but please be careful out there! It's an epidemic ☹️ but like shooting fish in a barrel for you😁 Are you able to update us as and when the actual penalties or otherwise for these idiots are actually published please? 🤔
I suspect the advisory/warning was because our view of the phone on video wasn't completely convincing that she was using emails. Back then proof of interactive communication was required, so I guess that's why she got a warning and the rest got prosecuted.
9:29 it's like watching the shit Olympics, Mikey adding that sweet-sweet commentary as we see how long it takes before the silly cow moves her car ahahaha, another banging video Mikey.
Governments should implement that cell phones must be kept in the glove box or the trunk of the person's vehicle,and fined heavily if stopped and found that not to be the case! What you think?
Unrelated question, why would anyone take the park road instead of using Park Lane? Sure;y that's much faster. Even if you're going from, say Chelsea to Paddington.
It is actually shocking how many people are using their phones whilst driving just on that little stretch of road. That woman in the Yaris was the worst, literally zero attention being paid on the road ahead
Thanks for the great work you do Mikey. Just curious, are you a lawyer or retired lawyer? You seem to know your way around the legal system. No big deal, but just curious. Thanks.
@@CyclingMikey Thank you for the reply. I truly believe in your work and I believe you help save lives by changing behavior one driver at a time. We could use more of your type of safety work in the United States. Take care.
You are right at their window looking in and they still don't know you are there. Transitional space awareness is zero and that can only spell real danger and maybe death to other road users and pedestrians.
Shows beyond doubt the LAW has NO fear. And so it will continue.... Now if it were an automatic disqualification, heavy fine and jail sentence. Job done.
Keep up the good work Mikey what's the point in having Bluetooth if your going to blatantly ignore rules of the roads and kill someone for the sake of a what's app chat or an email
Nice lady at the end, however I am sure she would not have been so pleasant to Mikey had she known that he has reported her for using a mobile phone whilst in control of a vehicle. 6 penalty points for the nice lady haha.
does anybody know what the law says about cops on there phones parked up but engines running my latest video shows cop on his laptop in police transit van while engine was running are cops allowed to do what the want ?
NIP letters mean the start of the prosecution process. I'm reasonably confident that most of the drivers who got an NIP ended up with a fine and 6 penalty points.
That most of these motorists are so self-absorbed in their cellphones not to initially notice Cycling Mikey clearly demonstrates they are not concentrating on the highway and their surroundings. Keep up the good work Mikey!
No wonder there are so many traffic queues in London, everyone is on their phone and not paying attention!
No, it's because of cycle lanes there is queues, without cycle lanes there is an extra lane for cars to drive.
🤓
Thats not the reason, AT ALL. How did you get 93 likes for that nonsense

Now if it were an automatic disqualification, heavy fine and jail sentence. Job done.
It's like shooting fish in a barrel this week.
Mikey are u going to let us know the outcome of the prosecutions when u find out,
Ubiquitous. Absolutely ubiquitous
The Toyota driver was appalling! Keep doing what you do...
i hope the porche got done for the number plate too
Blondie Yaris Hilton was the worst, clearly driving is such an interruption to her mobile use.
Keep up the good work Mikey what's the point in having Bluetooth if your going to blatantly ignore rules of the roads and kill someone for the sake of a what's app chat or an email
Luv u mickey but can u answer me a question? Whatsoever rules regarding using Google maps in a phone holdet and interacting with it?
Nice lady at the end, however I am sure she would not have been so pleasant to Mikey had she known that he has reported her for using a mobile phone whilst in control of a vehicle. 6 penalty points for the nice lady haha.
does anybody know what the law says about cops on there phones parked up but engines running my latest video shows cop on his laptop in police transit van while engine was running are cops allowed to do what the want ?
It's the police so they can do whatever they want even if it's illegal
Who gets the victim surcharge Mike or the government??????
That was a lovely Porsche
Is it also the norm now, the MET just send warning letters? Haven’t seen a prosecution in a while
NIP letters mean the start of the prosecution process. I'm reasonably confident that most of the drivers who got an NIP ended up with a fine and 6 penalty points.
