He's a South African who rides around London on a mission to catch people driving and using mobile phones, has reported many to the police, including a few celebrities, with resultant fines.
Also nabs others ignoring traffic lights and other infractions, his most notable his efforts on Gandalf Corner.
Equally lauded and unpopular, the latter with those who feel it is their right to ignore traffic regulations.


Some get very irate.

That was an interesting watch Steve :) Not something I'd do as there's a big chance that if a driver is prepared to break the law then your own personal safety may be at risk if such a person is confronted. Sadly, I've seen nasty confrontations of this nature happen.

I do see he's well mob-handed in the videos but even then, risky!

I have a policy of just totally ignoring such idiots or smiling and waving pleasantly to them. If they have committed an act the police may be keen to see then I submit the video evidence.

I have a friend who makes their displeasure at any small infringement very clear by shouting and gestures; I worry for their safely given that if a driver is driving dangerously in the first place then they may be dangerous in other ways. Just not worth the risk. That said, I possibly annoy them just as much by me completely ignoring them or smiling pleasantly at them.

That is true from that extract alone but it would mean checking every result of every grand prix in history to see if it was unique and I very much doubt it!! :-D
