Cyclecam Idiot Gets His Comeuppance
Excellent response from Police Scotland to the actions of one of the growing band of cyclecam twonks.
Story Here
I just wish they had actually charged him.

Re: Cyclecam Idiot Gets His Comeuppance
Assault? That wouldn't stand up in a million years.
Maybe, maybe a breach but that's sketchy, the driver of the car looks and sounds like a twonk who I only wish had a full cup of coke chucked through the window to teach him a lesson.

Re: Cyclecam Idiot Gets His Comeuppance
If only more people were confronted when they litter then perhaps this counrty wouldn't be the rubbish tip it so often looks like.

Re: Motorist Idiot could do with manboobs support
Fortunately, the motorist didn't throw his bra out of the window.

Re: Cyclecam Idiot Gets His Comeuppance
Should fine the driver £1000 and endorse his license with 3 points for being an A-Ol to society.

Re: Cyclecam Idiot Gets His Comeuppance
I wish i had a cam with me when someone threw a can from a car a few years ago on a mainroad and i had to get 3 stitches on my eyebrow. It was mid afternoon i was at work crossing a road going back to the van.
I had to ring in to work to say what happened and had to goto hospital.

Re: Cyclecam Idiot Gets His Comeuppance
Welcome to the world of vigilante camera users. It's been mainly bikers using/exploiting them but as more car drivers get equipped, expect to see more clips of cyclists/pedestrians behaving badly. At the end of the day we're all humans and inconsiderate idiots are found attached to legs as well as wheels.

He shouldn't, but the video (as presented on the Daily Mail site, and seemingly what the Police saw) does not show that he did. Any halfway decent lawyer would have got that video thrown out of court, even assuming it was considered enough evidence for a prosecution by the CPS (or their Scottsh equivalent).

The prosecuting authority in Scotland is the Procurator Fiscal - often referred to in police procedurals like Rebus or Taggart as "the Fiscal's office".
