Against my better judgments… I have mounted a camera to my helmet

Well that was an interesting #cycle home. Can anyone guess the first words a driver said to me after he asked me to pull over, after I'd pointed out he was tailgating me? It turned into a fascinating conversation that will have to go on #YouTube... #cycling #HelmetCam #HelmetCamera

Wow, the spectator is late to this party: https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/drivers-beware-the-rise-of-the-vigilante-cyclist/

There are only pretzels and john smith's bitter left and someone's putting the hoover round. Also I see that helmet cam cyclists "strongly reject the term ‘vigilante’" – presumably because 'vigilante' means something completely different to 'using legal channels to report drivers breaking the law' #cycling #biketooter #helmetcam

Recently I bought a ChilliTech Mk II Bullet Cam to replace my old helmet cam.
Here's the review

Does anyone here, in the EU ideally, have a redundant, superceded, duplicate, or in-need-of-minor-repair head/handlebar camera they would be happy to post to me, as a loan, or gift at low or no cost? I want to do some reportage of cycling remote mountain roads in Portugal for personal #eBike and #ecovillage promotion. Will make footage available online.

Hat jemand hier, im Idealfall in der EU, eine überflüssige, ersetzte, doppelte oder geringfügig reparaturbedürftige Kopf-/Lenkerkamera, die er/sie mir gerne als Leihgabe oder Geschenk zu einem günstigen oder keinem Preis zusenden würde kosten? Ich möchte eine Reportage über das Radfahren auf abgelegenen Bergstraßen in Portugal für die persönliche #eBike- und #Ökodorf-Promotion machen. Werde Filmmaterial online zur Verfügung stellen.

👍 👍 👍

With the orchestrated hounding of camera cyclists in the UK on social media, rest assured that we're winning, and that's why they're running scared.
Ensure you keep reporting bad drivers & use this template to make your reports better.

Do yourself & police you submit the report to, a favour: copy the suggested report from here, and amend it to reflect your circumstances & the unique scenario of each close pass.
The NR of drivers prosecuted should rise if you do this.
Share with others, so they can also see a rise in the NR of successful prosecutions.

Once you see it, you just can't unsee it. Views from this morning's #cycle #commute. #HelmetCam #TrafficJam #congestion #Glasgow

#PoliceScotland and the #ScottishGovernment promised that they would instigate an online #camera footage submission process to make reporting road traffic incidents easier and more efficient. However, this process is under threat from funding cuts. Please let Police Scotland know that you want the system to help provide justice for vulnerable road users. #HelmetCam #Dashcam #cycling https://action.cyclinguk.org/page/116696/action/1?ea.tracking.id=TW
