Only using your phone in stopped traffic? I don't think that's entirely true, Mr Jack the Lad. He had no idea at all I was there until I leaned in close. So much entitlement and deflection there. Notice also my positioning so that he can't immediately drive into me.

Amazed that this driver was perfectly happy to hold up other traffic behind on two occasions to have these discussions with you. In the first occasion, traffic ahead had moved on so much, it was no longer even in sight! And the second occasion, he was quite happy to sit through an entire green-red- green cycle to continue the discussion.

No matter how many times I see it, it still baffles me why they have the necessity to text messages when they're driving! Surely the idea of a text message is that the person can read it later at their leisure. If it's more critical I would think receiving a phone call on a 'Bluetooth' connection with no need to touch the phone makes more sense? Ah, I've just answered my own question when I used the word "sense".
It’s all Mikey’s fault that the driver was on his phone and of course Mikey is the weird one. Well done Mikey for what you do and not allowing morons like him to intimidate you. Absolutely delighted to hear he will get 6 points and a fine, and his insurance premium will increase👍.

Nice work, Mikey. I thought he was going to get out and act aggressive, but he was the more passive type. It's shocking to see that people still use the "I'm stopped in traffic" defence. Maybe they should put their phones away and brush up on the Highway Code. And it's not disgusting because you're filming in a public place, which is legal.

What a child, blaming others for his behaviour. I hope he watches the video and changes his ways.
Keep up the good work Mikey. So easy to spot these dangerous fools from my bicycle and motorcycle. Pity that the police don’t make more of an effort to catch them - they’re so obvious: going slow, poor reaction times, bad lane discipline. At night they’re even illuminating their faces with their phones “hidden below window level”. So easy just to ignore the phone whilst driving and look at it when you’ve parked up safely and switched off the car
Good work. The “scum bag” was unnecessary… but in that situation I have said much worse… I also regret a lot of things I said to drivers, not that they didn’t deserve it, or that it wasn’t true, as it was and they did.

Hi Mikey, I wholeheartedly agree with what you are doing and I am both a driver and a cyclist, but today I felt I had to comment. I don't think that you should antagonize these motorists, you have caught them doing something wrong and in fact illegal and they know it and are embarrassed! Rise above it, explain what they have done wrong and keep explaining it, I don,t think you should enter into a "slanging match" with them and shouting scumbag as you ride away only belittles you and makes it seem personal which I feel undermines what you are trying to achieve. Just my opinion, please keep up the good work.
Keep up the good work mikey you're a legend
I didn’t know commentary helped prosecution. Keep it up mikey!

The reason he took a while to go was because he was waiting for you to cycle in front allowing him the opportunity to harass you with his car.
Good catch. Clearly has no sense of responsibility, before or after he gets caught. Reminds me of a clip from the US, a cop's bodycam, where he was accused of sneaking up on and terrifying a woman who was stopped in the middle of the road texting. If Mikey - or a cop - can 'sneak' up on you, you're clearly distracted.
Merry Christmas and a happy 6 points and a FPN in the New Year.

"All fart and no poo" 😆
It's a common theme to attack Mikey's videos because they target users on the phone in "stopped traffic". Indeed, I'd imagine when this chap recounts the story of how he got done for phone driving, that it was so unfair because he was stopped in traffic and so what harm is there really? Well, this video shows that the "stopped traffic" mentality really means stopped and moving traffic, and how often do stopped traffic users continue to use their phone as they move off? So easy to miss a pedestrian, cyclist or another car if you do.
Well done - Happy Xmas Mikey- hope in 2023 you have no luck at Gandolph Corner or catching stupid drivers holding their mobile phones but sadly I’m sure nothing will change- there are always dangerous idiots out there who should be banned from driving.

At 2:23 interesting position indeed. Many drivers overrun the cycle box but this character stopped well short of it. Maybe because they wanted to maximize their phone time during the red light? Oh and at 3:31 he made his left turn without signalling. Left signal should have come on apon approaching the traffic lights and remained on until after the manouvre had been completed. Pretty basic driving stuff I think! I bet he didn't check for cyclists coming down his nearside either.

phone zombie apocalypse. go go go Mikey!
Mikey. Your doing a good public service sir. Once many years ago when we still had police walking the beat on foot and riding pushbikes, road crime offences were much lower as a simple wave of their hand and the vehicle had to stop, or else! I wonder if the police were still doing that today whether drivers would still be keen to plee ignorance of the law and continue using their mobiles?
Then at 3.22 sets off without checking surroundings with a cyclist next to him. A right specimen
Great stuff, these bloody entitled people need a reality check 👍
Whats so dangerous about being on your phone while stationary in a car ?
@CyclingMikey
Жыл бұрын
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 time 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) Here's a police officer telling you that he has been on the scene for 3 fatal RTCs involving drivers who were stationary whilst using their phones, and then moved off and caused a collision: twitter.com/markandcharlie/status/1604073330751197184?s=20&t=uj8sgu7spu4cTyDqqqds2g 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.
Whenever I see your videos I try to imagine all the various authorities that get to review it all afterwards and make a decision. I have visions of a judge wearing a wig reviewing these in court for those cases that go to court.
Hahahahahaha all fart and no P........ ! That's gonna cost him. Hope next time you catch him again :D
