A lot of it doesn’t seem rocket science - reducing volume and speed of through traffic on residential streets, and proper enforcement of traffic rules (which would include proper resourcing and consistency of #ThirdPartyVideoReporting)…

It’s really poor, especially as close passes are more likely to discourage women as per @cyclinguk.bsky.social’s #MyRideOurRight campaign.

I’m sure @andy-cox.bsky.social has views #ThirdPartyVideoReporting

And also properly resource #ThirdPartyVideoReporting?

Now can we have more police resource and more consistent processing? #ThirdPartyVideoReporting

And yet several forces are not reviewing close pass submissions because of ‘resource’? #ThirdPartyVideoReporting

The police haven’t got the resource (or the priorities) to adequately police #RoadCrime.

But if they’re going to rely on #ThirdPartyVideoReporting then it needs adequate resource and consistent processing, and both are questionable at the moment.

The horsey people were on the news the other day running an awareness campaign for motorists.

They’d honestly be better getting camera’d up.

#ThirdPartyVideoReporting

As above GMP has apparently halved the resource available (which seems inexplicable as you’d have thought #ThirdPartyVideoReporting generates quick wins) and AFAIK Police Scotland doesn’t really support it at all.

Currently that’s where we’re lacking. This needs to be multifactorial - allow councils to enforce moving traffic offences and keep the fines raised, encourage forces to support #ThirdPartyVideoReporting (local force here has halved resource for this while reports are increasing) and so on.

Well done West Yorks Police for sharing #OpSnap stats in an easy to understand format. It would be great to see GMP Traffic do likewise. #ThirdPartyVideoReporting

We have it (3 points and a fine for each offence) *but* roads policing has been decimated by 14 years of austerity and #ThirdPartyVideoReporting depends on police force and some eg. Police Scotland don’t really do it.
