I am in the middle of this process now following this incident. The Police have been very supportive for this and I am awaiting their comments after speaking to the driver.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hinrf9D-TAARhode Longhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14915552340092347797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7651597981151570147.post-8342855400773642862010-11-05T09:17:22.234+00:002010-11-05T09:17:22.234+00:00Martin, I've hhad a chat with someone at anoth...Martin, I've hhad a chat with someone at another force who suggested that you should - if you're prepared to! - go back in and ask to speak to at least a sargeant or inspector, since it does look like a criminal offence has been committed ...

I had a driver effectively try to run me off the road (in anger, as oppose to just plain old fashioned NIMBYISM) There were witnesses, I went to the Plod and the CPS chose to prosecute. The trial is in Jan and the driver is being charged with speeding, negligent driving and failing to stop after an accident. The Plod take this sort of thing very seriously indeed. (But be warned - my incident was Oct 2009 and the trial is in Jan 2011!) It's hard work but this sort of behaviour should not go unchecked.ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7651597981151570147.post-13207993355615438272010-11-04T12:29:04.537+00:002010-11-04T12:29:04.537+00:00Yes, absolutely.
