“In four years Mike van Erp has filmed 1,400 drivers using their phones, leading to 1,800 penalty points, £110,000 of fines — and him being assaulted by disgruntled motorists. Is he a road safety hero or just a darned nuisance? Nick Rufford joins him on patrol”

I’ve watched a few of his videos. I should be surprised that he catches so many drivers in their phones, but in and around London? Not surprised at all.

    Is he a road safety hero or just a darned nuisance?

    It’s a funny old world where someone reporting people for committing crimes is a “nuisance”. I presume it’s because it’s the sacred art of driving, rather than littering or not picking up dog poo.
