A Bristol cyclist is reportedly facing a £1,000 fine for blocking a road after spotting a driver using his mobile phone behind the wheel.
Tom Bosanquet, 42, sent his headcam footage to police showing a driver allegedly using a phone while at the wheel, and drove through a red light on March 4. But he was then notified by Avon and Somerset police that he faced a fine for breaking traffic regulations.
According to the Sunday Times , police allegedly stated that because he ‘blocked the road’ to ‘'converse with the occupant' of the vehicle he broke the law himself. Police reportedly said that the driver perhaps 'in his frustration then decided to go through the red light', which led to sending Tom a prosecution letter.
