Drivers of luxury cars are 3-4 times more likely to break the law than the rest of us per Berkeley Study: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuqGrz-Y_Lc
Nevertheless, I try to check all vehicles, not just the expensive ones, and I don’t prejudge someone in a rich car – I wait to see the traffic offence…

He has bad weeks because he doesn't adhere to laws
He's rich, he can afford it.
I'm having a very bad week too. My ex is refusing to let me see my child because I reported her to the police for attacking me. Estimated legal fees to see her are in the range of £15k.
If only I'd known I could drive around using my phone, that would make it all better…
On a serious note, he has ennraged me much more than your usual catches. Thank you for reporting him.
When you drive Bentley, how bad can your week be going, really?
Hi Mikey, I've admired your courage and determination for doing what you do for several years now but I do wish that you'd take care. I would advise not to interact with these people as you may come across some nutcase who'll take exception to being caught. Other than that, keep up the good work.
Guy has no idea what a bad week really is, for someone..!!
The van driver at the end also needs retraining. Not only was he impeding traffic, i.e. you, but he then almost knocked you off your bike when he opened the van door
Thank you
The tints on that first car! 😮
So even BENTLEY drivers can have a bad day, this info which certainly is going to safe me an awful lot of money, as I recently had many bad days and I was thinking about buying a BENTLEY to forget about the bad day and just drive around in traffic abusing my phone. But now that I know this, I will continue with my (Bentley like 😉) Dacia, and simply don't use my phone while driving despite the bluetooth that the car is equipped with, and try to enjoy the bad days knowing how much money I am saving by not having a bad day in my BENTLEY.
1:25 puppy!
That is just tough, that he’s had a bad week!!! So what!!! No excuses; you chose to use your phone whilst driving; suffer the consequences!!! Well done again Mikey 👍👍👍
👍
it was either you or the next person, all need to move and park sometimes
I'm sorry…
Ah that's fine, you've said sorry. I miss my sister everyday and the family will never recover, but now you've apologised… relief! Hope YOUR week improves! Hope our lifetime improves…
Had a bad week. That must be the worse excuse I have ever heard. He sure will have a bad day when he receives his post.
Not only did the van driver delay you (stupidly, as he clearly knew he was about to park up), he then opens the door on you! Zero situational awareness.
Stopping in the yellow box.. tut tut
Imagine giving a shit what your number plate says 😂
Far more people use phones whilst driving compared to drink drivers, yet road deathes caused by phone drivers is a small fraction of deaths caused by drink drivers. Drink driving is far more dangerous and statistics prove the point.
So having a nice car still means Mikey will not be nice with you….
Must be some way Mikey will be nice….
Maybe resist fondling the hand held device yes thats it…
Just imagine what a difference it would make possibilities are endless…
And make everyone's life nice after all Mikey is polite and pleasant..
Well caught once again 👍🇬🇧
Shame, nice guy. But would he learn had you not reported him? 🤔
When I see a private plate I immediately know the character of the driver
Didn't report the unrestrained dog ?
or the van driver who nearly doored you ?
Van driver was far worse in my opinion, pulled out in front of you without looking, then pulled over in front of you with hazard lights (left indicator would have been better) and then nearly doored you. Twat!
I don't get the plate. Is it just initials or is it supposed to spell something?
