In my eyes that's more than 3 points, that's licence revoked. This could easily be classed as assault with a deadly weapon. It is far worse than driving without due care and attention.
There's a bus lane in Darlington only a bus lane at specific times though!

@@RS-xq6jeI understand why Mikey is doing this. I’ve watched hundreds of his videos of people thinking this junction is free game. It’ll end up the death of someone. The problem is, if this junction (Gandalf corner in case you were wondering) was policed, the public would moan. If there was a traffic camera installed, the public would moan. Yet, add in several casualties at this junction and the public wouldn’t batter an eye lid. But the public would still moan that this junction is policed as it inconveniences their day by 5-10 minutes. Yet they couldn’t leave their homes 5-10 minutes earlier to beat the traffic. He (Mikey) catches double figures every day that he policies this corner himself. Often those he does catch, not only traverse the junction illegally but they’re often on their fucking phones. It’s the entitled ‘you can’t do a thing mate’ or ‘it’s none of your business’ generation that need punishing. A fine won’t cut it. Revoking their licence for a year or two may just allow them to question their life choices and attitude.
I drive in London most days & unfortunately see idiots like him on a daily basis getting away with this kind of thing. Well done for putting him in his place
I saw that too, and wondered what the need for it was, as cars can come round the same corner into the cyclist. Car going wrong way is arguably a bit more serious
You're right, but he put in a privacy complaint and I have to abide by TH-cam's ToS. It doesn't matter that he has no right to privacy in a public place in the UK; TH-cam is more restrictive than that. It is pointless anyway, as his face has been all over the media now.
Any idea why TH-cam has such a policy? At least, any good reason to have such a policy? Also, great job, you should be proud of yourself for keeping others safe :) Love from Slovenia, just found your channel
nearly wet myself when he starts arguing with the Police and has to be almost dragged to be shown the "Keep left" signs.... The cyclist that came round from your right as the Police dealt with him was a prime example of why this move they do is so dangerous. He'd have stood no chance if he'd met that Merc, on the other hand he might have been lucky and "bumped into" a doctor there.
The Merc was barely rolling and if doing a move like that, it's extremely likely he is paying a LOT more attention to traffic than most people driving normally. Your point makes no sense.
@@TheDominiqueG So following your "logic"... If I drive slowly and pay a LOT more attention than normally, I can drive the wrong side of a motorway. Got it.
Who was the bigger idiot that got in the way tho if he never got in the way and just recorded the drivers plates and reported him he wouldnt have got touched then would he
Cmon it was for a minor traffic offence thst doesnt require too much paperwork... nice eady job for the law. if it was someone getting stabbed, they would take even longer.
A fine? Here in the US we call that assault with a motor vehicle. That'll land you in jail for a couple of years. The idea that hitting someone with a car lands you nothing more than fine is absurd.
Possibly Battery also. Contact was made. Battery is defined as “any willful and unlawful use of force or violence on someone else.” Battery requires that one person actually inflicts harmful or offensive contact on another person. There is no requirement that the victim suffers a personal injury or bodily harm, only that contact was made.
Depends on what group is running you over. Here in the US we let a man out on the street after setting a pregnant woman with twins on fire, a felon let out and slashed a woman to death, let another felon out after he assaulted his girlfriend and before the ink was dry he was out on the street and had murdered her, trans person molested 10 year old repeatedly and let out before he even sat in a jail cell. Murderers of police officers out on the street. DA’s bought and sold.

We had an incident in the US where the cyclist was pulled over by the police for doing nothing illegal. The police harassed the cyclist and wrote up a ticket. the cyclist worked at my company and fought the ticket. It took 2 courts to get the policeman corrected.

There's something really wrong with our legal system when this person is fined just £90 for ramming you with his car whilst on the wrong side of the road. Should at the very least be points and a massive fine. £90 is not a deterrent. In my opinion he'll do it again, but not when you are standing there!!

I know your comment is a year old, but beeping at learners struck a cord. When I learned to drive a stick shift, I literally did it on the way home from the dealer. My dad was following in his car, while I "Soloed" for the first time. At a red light, I kept stalling out when I tried to get into first. I was a nervous wreck because this guy got between me and dad, and got right on my tail. Then he kept blowing his horn. My dad go out of his car and went right up to the other driver's car and OPENED HIS DOOR!! My dad has always been fit...And BIG! The guy looked like he tried to swallow a pineapple when my dad yelled at him! I got it in gear and made it home right up the street. My dad arrived a few minutes later and told me I did great! LOL I have no idea what that other guy thought. I'm glad dad didn't get arrested!
I can guarantee that 90% of all bad driving incidents that I see are committed by BMW, Merc or Audi drivers. These cars seem to attract the people who have an inferiority complex and are trying to prove something. Good on the man that put up this challenge, you can bet the people this cheater works with laughed their hearts out when they saw this great upload. Anyone that cheats like this will have cheated many in many ways.
@Joseph Gill I drive a taxi and I can confirm that Audis, BMWs and Mercs and all driven by an equal amount of cocks. One thing that I've noticed is that if its a white German car then they're on a higher plane of cockdom.

Nowadays, I can hardly drive 500 yards, from my house, before meeting a reckless or dangerous driver - it’s a sign of the times we live in. My hat off to this cyclist who stood his ground against such outrageous behaviour, and keep his cool. Well done. Thanks for sharing video.
Yep, these times are taking a toll on us all.. sadly there isn't much critical thinking from the governments on how this will affect the society as there are several spikes in all kinds of behaviours because of these shutdowns,lockdowns.
Fit a dashcam in your car then you can report bad drivers to the police on their website. I've done it and got a few drivers get a letter sent to them by the police to confirm who was driving at the time to get prosecuted or sent on a awareness course. It'll make these fools think twice then how to drive considerately
@@zaink7037 I don't have money for dashcam. I do have a tracker on my phone for my insurance company to track my driving and that gets me a 30% discount off my insurance. I'm a good driver and don't deserve to be charged the same insurance rates that these awful drivers are being charged. 20 years, 5 countries, both sides of the road and I've never been in an accident as a driver or had a speeding ticket or traffic ticket of any sort. I had a driver charge at me in a zebra crossing as a child and I'd never want to put another human being through that sort of trauma.
People like that even when caught driving dangerously are still in total denial they are doing anything wrong. Sadly there are thousands of them on our streets.
Yeah, I have thoughts. One rule for one, and another for another. I'm not sure but didn't the cyclist put himself in the way of the car or did I imagine it.
UK Law: Watching TV without a licence = £1,000 fine Ramming cyclist on wrong side of road = £90 fine Conclusion: TV's have a higher priority than human life?
ok but £1,000 is the MAXIMUM fine, just like hitting a person with your car is also a maximum of £5,000 and a lot of jail time. If you didn't bend the truth you'd be able to tell that if you compare the 2 maximums you'd see that human life costs more. More often than not, a TV license fine is nowhere near £1000, you'd be unlucky if it was even 5% of that number
@@PauIdenino no, it's the driver's fault for breaking the law. People defending the criminals and condemning those that hold them to account, scum of the Earth!
I bet this wasnt an accident I bet he has seen this in previous morning and decided that one day he will be there with a camera and do this exact thing
"but I have to go to work" must mean I can break any laws to get where I am going because I am better than everyone else which is why the laws dont apply to me!!! What a balam!!!
"There's traffic over there, you can't expect me to wait in it. I've got to go to work." This seems to be his entire rationale for driving on the wrong side of the road. So special, so important, the rules don't apply to him. He should have his license revoked for deliberately hitting someone with his car. Just because it didn't hurt you shouldn't matter because it COULD have and he drove into you multiple times!
All private vehicles should be banned from towns and cities, unless resident! It's becoming a joke and they and public transport should made to deliver! Fumes in Cambridge are a joke, it's a noticeable stench after riding in from the country!
@RandomShart I am an ex London commuter now living in Holland. In England I lived in Erith and commuted by motorcycle to Central London. The journey took circa 30-40 minutes. Door to door by train was circa 1.5 hours and involved half hour walking to avoid the Underground and 15 minutes from the rail station to home! Here - same time to Amsterdam by bike. Public transport - 1.5 hours if the bus/train connection works out - otherwise it's 2 hours. Really no contest.
I am not sure about the laws in the UK, but here in Germany if someone stands on an empty parking lot and you want to park there but he refuses to leave because he wants the parking lot for his friend you are allowed to slowly push him without it being an assault so slowly pushing someone with your car because he doesn't want to get out of the way is not hitting
@@user-bj3pq2si2l The law in the UK is presumably different. And in this video it's not about a parking lot, it's about an impatient driver driving down the wrong side of the road with all the dangers that entails.
MIKEY THAT WAS PURE INSTANT KARMA... YOU HAVE GOT ME ADDICT TO THESE VIDS. JUST LOVE YOUR CALMNESS AND THE ATTITUDE OF THESE MORONS WHO CANT DRIVE PROPERLY. SO GLAD MY DRIVING INSTRUCTOR NEVER TAUGHT ME TO KEEP RIGHT OF A KEEP LEFT SIGN. BE SAFE AND KEEP UP THE FAB WORK
What I find so hard to comprehend is the attitude of that driver, thinking he can just do as he pleases and that the rules of the road do not apply to him. As a seriously fed up pedestrian, I have to say I am mightily pleased this driver got his comeuppance. Personally, I think that particular offence should get 3 points on the licence in addition to the FPN as they are putting so many innocent lives at risk with their selfishness.
Merc needs quite a bit more than that, considering he tried to run the cyclist over. That's more than DWDCA, it's dangerous driving and arguably assault. It would ordinarily carry a custodial sentence, though likely suspended.
He cant attempt to stop the cyclists as it could cause them to fall off and get injured. He does tell them if he isn't being distracted by being ran into.
I drove a commercial vehicle daily in the West End for six years, and came across quite a few idiots. But I never realised the amount of stupid people there are on our roads. Kudos to you for what you do.

Can't argue reason with someone so adamantly against any personal responsibility or humility, matter of time until his stunts get someone hurt, and will he even learn then?

Who is sad? You're sad. You're crying salty tears because bad driving is being caught and punished. You're salty because you identify with criminal drivers. Most of all I'm happy that your reaction shows how much traction this idea of good citizens videoing and reporting road crime has gotten in your head. Tens of thousands of cyclists run video cameras and will report bad driving around them. From now on you'll remember this conversation every time you see cyclists on the road, and you'll think about some of us filming you. Some of our cameras are very easy to see, like GoPros, and some are nearly impossible to spot. Have fun looking for cyclists' cameras on the road. I'm not even in the top ten most prolific reporters in London. I suggest you drive properly around us all. Feel paranoid. Google your own number plates. Regularly.
At 1m 35 seconds I love his comment that “there’s no one coming” as if that excuses his behaviour, just as a cyclist comes into the picture riding straight towards him! Great timing.
@@joes6088 Yes, good comment and of course I have concerns - it's wrong, and they shouldn't do it. There are several reasons why I don't deal with them: 1) By far the most danger comes from the car drivers doing this, not only because of their size and mass, but also because of the speed and carelessness which many drivers go through here. In contrast most motorcyclists and cyclists are much more careful when doing this. Two wheelers have skin in the game, drivers do not. 2) I have limited spare time, and I'm not going to spend all of it doing this. That means I'll focus on the most dangerous, being the drivers. My choice. 3) I don't feel able to stop cyclists or motorcyclists doing this as if they fell off because of me stopping them I'd be on very dodgy moral and legal grounds. 4) Whilst I can report the motorcyclists who do this, I tend only to report the few who do it dangerously. I obviously can't report the cyclists, so all I do is occasionally scold them from the corner. 5) The Royal Parks police do much the same - rarely stopping cyclists and motorcyclists, and often stopping the drivers when they stake out this junction. That's a good sense check that I'm doing the right thing. 6) If you want to come down and stop cyclists, feel free to do so yourself. 7) It's classic whataboutery to complain about a different thing when I'm dealing with drivers. This is a copy and paste message.
While these drivers are asses, are you literally just waiting around for them to do this? Also why hide the reg when you just rattle it off in the video anyway.
He obviously just waited until the offending driver was finished with the police. Nothing unusual about him wanting to wait until the issue was concluded.
It's a legal matter. In europe it's forbidden to show license plates... but I guess there's no law for speaking out random letters and numbers ;-) Edit: Show license plates without consent of the owner of course.
@@helenaville5939 Watch the beginning of the video, he waited behind the hedge/corner for someone to use the wrong lane. I bet he also likes to go around and report people for parking violations...
Well... don’t be an ass and endanger others just for your own benefit. Driving on the wrong side of the road on a corner you can’t look around? How stupid can someone be. If you guys would have paid attention it’s happening there pretty often... so nothing wrong with letting people pay for their misbehaving. Nobody is forced to be unlawful! We as a society decided to make the rules, so if you’re somebody wanting to be a part of it you have to follow those rules. If not? You have to at least be punished for not following the rule.
I think this corner may become one of London's new tourist attractions if you continue your driver education program here. You've got some balls, bike Gandalf, I'll say that for you!
Imagine getting aggressive and trying to get people on your side while on the wrong side of the road and trying to use your vehicle as a weapon and your excuse is that he needs to go to work. I love how police come and he still thought he was in the right then the polices first words were "you're under arrest"
I had a cabbie do this to me in a pedestrian crosswalk. Came right at me as I was crossing, only stopped when I raised the phone and photographed him. Taxi Commission and Police, however, failed to see a problem. Happens all the time here. Need a better strategy.
Chapeau again. Wouldn't dream of doing this on the roads I ride or you'd be sprayed across the bonnet without so much as a second thought. Your composure in these situations is astounding.
Good job, he'll definitely think twice before doing that again

@@RS-xq6jeI understand why Mikey is doing this. I’ve watched hundreds of his videos of people thinking this junction is free game. It’ll end up the death of someone.
The problem is, if this junction (Gandalf corner in case you were wondering) was policed, the public would moan. If there was a traffic camera installed, the public would moan. Yet, add in several casualties at this junction and the public wouldn’t batter an eye lid.
But the public would still moan that this junction is policed as it inconveniences their day by 5-10 minutes. Yet they couldn’t leave their homes 5-10 minutes earlier to beat the traffic.
He (Mikey) catches double figures every day that he policies this corner himself. Often those he does catch, not only traverse the junction illegally but they’re often on their fucking phones. It’s the entitled ‘you can’t do a thing mate’ or ‘it’s none of your business’ generation that need punishing. A fine won’t cut it. Revoking their licence for a year or two may just allow them to question their life choices and attitude.

Not the brightest idea blocking a maniac with your body
A fine? Here in the US we call that assault with a motor vehicle. That'll land you in jail for a couple of years. The idea that hitting someone with a car lands you nothing more than fine is absurd.
Possibly Battery also. Contact was made.
Battery is defined as “any willful and unlawful use of force or violence on someone else.” Battery requires that one person actually inflicts harmful or offensive contact on another person. There is no requirement that the victim suffers a personal injury or bodily harm, only that contact was made.
It's called Freedom of Expression, Im surprised you didn't say " In Murica he would be shot" either by the driver or a cop
Fair enough, partly explains why the US has about the highest prison population in the world. Obviously that works - not.
That's what I was thinking... A fine isn't enough
Depends on what group is running you over. Here in the US we let a man out on the street after setting a pregnant woman with twins on fire, a felon let out and slashed a woman to death, let another felon out after he assaulted his girlfriend and before the ink was dry he was out on the street and had murdered her, trans person molested 10 year old repeatedly and let out before he even sat in a jail cell.

UK Law:
Watching TV without a licence = £1,000 fine
Ramming cyclist on wrong side of road = £90 fine
Conclusion: TV's have a higher priority than human life?
ok but £1,000 is the MAXIMUM fine, just like hitting a person with your car is also a maximum of £5,000 and a lot of jail time. If you didn't bend the truth you'd be able to tell that if you compare the 2 maximums you'd see that human life costs more.

@@CyclingMikeyidentify with criminals? These are motoring offences
@@lissa-iat2261deliberately driving into a pedestrian is NOT a motoring offence
3:06 "move your car all the way!", love the way the officer insists he goes all the way to the back, he tried to butt in even then!
Unbelievable how he continues to argue even with the police.
People like him have no shame. They think they're more important than everyone else.
@@Dehibernation Yup - "It's all about ME". 🙄 But on this day he learnt it wasn't ..... 😉😀
As he's entitled, as he drive's a merc.
As soon as you buy a merc, it gives you untold freedom to break any law's you wish to.
@@janefaulkner3749 not just that, he's a millennial.
@@Dehibernation You don't have to cowl down to the police mate, you can stand up to them.
I think this guy was on correct side. It's just whole UK driving on wrong one :p
Are you stupid? Yes, you are.
@@alantorrance6153 No he isn't. But YOU ARE dumb. It's just a joke. Dont take everything seriously man 🖕🖕
@@alantorrance6153 Woosh! :D
@@alantorrance6153 you're not as dumb as that Merc driver but bud you're so close
Good one man 😁
At 1m 35 seconds I love his comment that “there’s no one coming” as if that excuses his behaviour, just as a cyclist comes into the picture riding straight towards him! Great timing.
The Mercedes guy is a complete low life!!!! Hes in the wrong and still argues over it.
"Stop a Douchebag" is gone international.
"I've got to get to work!", then maybe don't drive on the wrong side of the road?
A better tip would be to simply leave a few minutes earlier, which shouldn't be hard to do, LOL.
No problem with the cyclist being on the wrong side of the road I notice...
@@joes6088 Yes, good comment and of course I have concerns - it's wrong, and they shouldn't do it. There are several reasons why I don't deal with them:
1) By far the most danger comes from the car drivers doing this, not only because of their size and mass, but also because of the speed and carelessness which many drivers go through here. In contrast most motorcyclists and cyclists are much more careful when doing this. Two wheelers have skin in the game, drivers do not.
2) I have limited spare time, and I'm not going to spend all of it doing this. That means I'll focus on the most dangerous, being the drivers. My choice.
3) I don't feel able to stop cyclists or motorcyclists doing this as if they fell off because of me stopping them I'd be on very dodgy moral and legal grounds.
4) Whilst I can report the motorcyclists who do this, I tend only to report the few who do it dangerously. I obviously can't report the cyclists, so all I do is occasionally scold them from the corner.
5) The Royal Parks police do much the same - rarely stopping cyclists and motorcyclists, and often stopping the drivers when they stake out this junction. That's a good sense check that I'm doing the right thing.
6) If you want to come down and stop cyclists, feel free to do so yourself.
7) It's classic whataboutery to complain about a different thing when I'm dealing with drivers.
This is a copy and paste message.
Here in US that driver would have been thrown to the ground and arrested within a minute or so.
While these drivers are asses, are you literally just waiting around for them to do this? Also why hide the reg when you just rattle it off in the video anyway.
He obviously just waited until the offending driver was finished with the police. Nothing unusual about him wanting to wait until the issue was concluded.
It's a legal matter. In europe it's forbidden to show license plates... but I guess there's no law for speaking out random letters and numbers ;-)
Edit: Show license plates without consent of the owner of course.
@@helenaville5939 Watch the beginning of the video, he waited behind the hedge/corner for someone to use the wrong lane.
I bet he also likes to go around and report people for parking violations...
Well... don’t be an ass and endanger others just for your own benefit. Driving on the wrong side of the road on a corner you can’t look around? How stupid can someone be.
If you guys would have paid attention it’s happening there pretty often... so nothing wrong with letting people pay for their misbehaving. Nobody is forced to be unlawful!
We as a society decided to make the rules, so if you’re somebody wanting to be a part of it you have to follow those rules. If not? You have to at least be punished for not following the rule.
One day karma may be reciprocated. If someone stands by a red traffic light, then jumps out on him going through it!
This is hilarious, but he deserved a waaaaay bigger fine for driving into you!
I think this corner may become one of London's new tourist attractions if you continue your driver education program here. You've got some balls, bike Gandalf, I'll say that for you!
Can they put bleachers behind the hedge there so everyone can suddenly pop up and laugh when he catches a motorist?
:- ]
Strohmann That's a damn good idea, I wonder if there's a business opportunity for a popcorn stand here ;-)
Not sure why the number plate and face are now blurred when this is in a public place. Anyways the number plate is GV68 KFX
The irony is if he'd just stayed in the traffic he'd be on his way
“COME HERE with me now”
“okay”
HAHAHHAHAH LMAO that part killed me
Min?
Imagine getting aggressive and trying to get people on your side while on the wrong side of the road and trying to use your vehicle as a weapon and your excuse is that he needs to go to work. I love how police come and he still thought he was in the right then the polices first words were "you're under arrest"
That driver is a prime example why it's illegal for close relatives to procreate in the U.K. His parents should be ashamed!
I had a cabbie do this to me in a pedestrian crosswalk. Came right at me as I was crossing, only stopped when I raised the phone and photographed him. Taxi Commission and Police, however, failed to see a problem.
Happens all the time here. Need a better strategy.
Isn't it about time cameras were installed there so anyone jumping the traffic gets an automatic ticket?
Wow I cycle if I spoke to someone like that in Glasgow I would probably get run over 🤣
Chapeau again. Wouldn't dream of doing this on the roads I ride or you'd be sprayed across the bonnet without so much as a second thought. Your composure in these situations is astounding.
I'm impressed the police got there so fast. Well done to you for standing firm.
Love how calm you stayed. Made the other one look even more like a muppet than he already was acting. Great job.
... And I think to myself what a wonderful world...
Thank you CyclingMickey for doing what you're doing!
That junction needs monitoring more often, especially at rush hours.
As it looks like it wasn't his first time.
probably not
Most likely will, he is an arrogant self serving prick.
Looks like it could use some one way spikes. That would stop drivers from cutting the corner real fast.
Did no one notice a cyclist did exactly the same thing? The driver should absolutely be punished but that should apply to any mode of transport.
