1ETR818 Did not passCycleops702026-09-28 | 1ETR818 Did not pass1GQO241 Close passCycleops702025-06-27 | The driver was fully aware of their actions, gesturing after they passed. The Wheatbelt police were excellent. Unlike their Metro counterparts.490CFC Not lookingCycleops702025-04-23 | The driver turns the corner on the wrong side of the road & continues to drive at me. All the while she never looked ahead, until I yelled at her.1HCE949 pull out not lookingCycleops702025-04-22 | Completely oblivious. Didn't look once.1HVT961 distracted driver swerves at the last secondCycleops702025-04-21 | This driver was on a collision course & swerved at the last second, passing with mm to spare. The police officer just closed the report, lied about contacting me & ignored all attempts to get a response (2 online enquiries). Another officer responded after I submitted a complaint.
I later found the driver in a carpark still on her phone, giving me some BS about being distracted about work, & she was on the phone to her husband & the police to say she'd almost hit someone (she wasn't)Must get in frontCycleops702025-04-09 | Tailgating, speeding, & must get in front. This is what happens when 2 moron drivers meet.ICEDMOCHA Punishment passCycleops702025-03-19 | The driver was annoyed he was delayed, gave me a punishment pass, & "rolled coal" in front of me. Both of these are illegal.
WA police refused to take action, because "the lanes are narrow" and they had a "different opinion" about the excessive smoke.Close pass 1HAW468Cycleops702025-03-19 | They were so close I could slap the side of the vehicle with a flat palm. Because of this the police couldn't claim it wasn't less than a metre, so they just refused to take action, but making up their own laws of "you were in the middle of the lane". And signed off the call with "I look forward to your complaint".
Update. WA police say it was my fault as I should have moved out of the way. Citing reg 125 courtesy when overtaking. I couldn't have been further left unless I was in the left turning lane.
They claim both reg 124A passing distance law & Reg 125 courtesy when overtaking are applicable. But given that WA systemically refuse to enforce passing distance laws, the rider will always be held accountable by WA police for the drivers actions.1DYL888 close passCycleops702025-03-09 | I don't know why some drivers think I will evaporate when the lights go green. Totally perplexed about how to use the empty lane to their right. The driver received a caution.3 cars one red lightCycleops702025-02-13 | No Fks given1HBM394 Jesus ChristCycleops702024-12-17 | Entitled Jesus tried to play the hard man to cover up being called out on his parking. I hope he enjoys his $100 fine. If he hadn't been such a dick about it I wouldn't have bothered.1IJY636 Close passCycleops702024-12-17 | The driver couldn't wait until we both pass the traffic island & they chose to pass through the narrowest pert of the road.1HUK940 MGIFCycleops702024-12-14 | Overtakes on the wrong side of the islands speeding past an intersection just to get to the same junction. No police response. In our worst road fatality year in ten years.Motorbikes on the PSPCycleops702024-08-10 | Why don't they ride in the bike lane?Give way to pedestrians... Nah!Cycleops702024-08-10 | Drivers are legally required to give way to pedestrians when turning onto a road they are crossing. I'm standing in the road here. Our road safety authorities never promote this law.RLJ close callCycleops702024-08-01 | I think incompetence rather than intention. But the result is the same.Path driver 1GQC501Cycleops702024-05-05 | I think they pulled straight back onto the path again. The driveway here goes to a car park!What crossing 1EBI267Cycleops702024-04-03 | Very few drivers stop at these crossings. I have to shame them into stopping by pointing at the crossings.1BKU299 close passCycleops702024-04-03 | I didn't get the same BS response from police this time. Just a little bit of BS about it being time consuming & costly to deal with these. But at least they agreed to talk to the driver this time.Bogan AbuseCycleops702024-03-12 | A sweary young bogan in his mum's car.Tailgating VWI976Cycleops702024-03-04 | Nice combi van. Shit driving. Tailgating someone on a bike because they want to pressure you into speeding.1HEZ730 close pass & police responseCycleops702024-02-26 | This is not the worst pass I've had, but because I passed over road markings & the vehicle can be seen to stay within the lane, I was able to demonstrate they could not have passed more than 0.7m from me.
A long way short of the 1.5m minimum.
The driver also had an empty lane available to them.
The police officer who this went to refused to take action. When I asked what it would take for him to do anything; "for you to ride further left". There is no basis in law for riding in the gutter.
I submitted a complaint about the officer applying their own personal bias over actual law.
My complaint was ignored (this is not unusual). Until I escalated it to the police minister.
The driver was then spoken to as a result.1EDW595 close passCycleops702024-01-09 | Quiet road early on a Sunday morning. This driver couldn't find the empty lane to the right.
Not reported, because WA Police are motoring apologists.1EPQ503 RLJCycleops702023-09-14 | Driver issued an infringement. Confirmation from WA police 24/10/231EUC 238 Close passCycleops702023-09-08 | Not fast, but millimetres from me. The police said the driver felt they gave enough room! They received a caution. I've no idea what it takes for the police to issue an infringement.Gutter preacher 1DUD665Cycleops702023-08-27 | Their window was open, so they looked back & pointed to the gutter. They chose to pass on the narrowest oint of the road, instead of passing after the tree, were there was all the space in the world.1HMN305 You were walking deliberatelyCycleops702023-08-07 | There has been a number of serious injuries to pedestrian & e-scooter riders at intersections. Inevitably these are described in the news as "scooter incidents". I got sick of drivers driving at me when walking to the shops that I've started recording.
The police officer suggested is was "deliberately" walking across the road? Well yes. I needed to to get home.1HUL310 overtake to slow downCycleops702023-08-07 | They overtook on a blind bend/crest with a solid line, so I assumed they had no time to waste. I get they had to stop for the tracks, but why park it on the roundabout, then slowly drive down the centre line again. I pulled away & never saw them again.1ECV208 Slip lanesCycleops702023-06-18 | Give way to pedes...... ah stuff it.Close pass empty laneCycleops702023-06-18 | This driver's steering wheel must be broken. They couldn't seem to turn it a couple of degrees to the right.1FAD748 Close pass YTCycleops702023-03-27 | The police are too busy to be bothered with this. In the first year of passing distance law the police only issued 8 infringements. In the same period they found the time & resources to issue 746 infringements to cyclists for not wearing a helmet.
It's got nothing to do resourcing. They have no interest in addressing driving that puts vulnerable road users at risk.1GWV979 Late lane changeCycleops702023-02-19 | I didn't see an indicator.157HFC MGIFCycleops702023-02-19 | Those seconds are valuable.1GMA720 MGIFCycleops702023-02-19 | Those seconds are valuble.1DJK299 Close passCycleops702022-11-03 | The driver changed lanes into me. There was no reason for this, as they were approaching a red light & going straight ahead anyway. The licence plate was registered to a Mitsubishi Outlander. Police "educated" the driver. And the licence plate is now registered correctly.Head onCycleops702022-10-19 | I think they were trying a new short cut.1HHW025 No offenceCycleops702022-09-29 | WA Police; "No offence took place". You can drive as dangerously as you like around vulnerable road users. You can even hit them at 70kph (previous experience) and they will sympathise with the driver & offer excuses on their behalf.LIV2RYD close passCycleops702022-09-10 | Driver received a caution.CEC333 Close pass to red lightCycleops702022-08-07 | The road split into two just 2 seconds after they passed, towards a red light. Absolutely pointless.1HJP956 close pass into oncoming traffic at speedCycleops702022-07-19 | High speed close pass. This driver had no intentions of lifting off the accelerator. The driver was issued an infringement for crossing the solid line* putting the oncoming driver at risk. For putting the rider at risk? Nothing.
*It is legal to cross a solid line to pass a cyclist, but only if your view ahead is clear & it is safe.1EZX500 overtaking on a crossingCycleops702022-06-25 | The driver overtakes across a pedestrian crossing, startling a pedestrian, who stopped in their tracks. The driver gave me the finger & carried on. WA police took no action because it's a car park. I don't think that would have made any difference anyway, as I've not found where the line is drawn where police would take any action against dangerous drivers anywhere.Horny & aggressive 1HDG385Cycleops702022-04-10 | They couldn't wait the 3 seconds to clear the roundabout, & drove over the roundabout leaning on the horn.
The vehicle is listed as white.1DFL822 impatient tailgaterCycleops702022-04-10 | I noticed this driver initially tailgating me, but then they dropped back. It wasn't until we stopped & I looked back to see they were under my mudguard & millimetres from my exhaust. Why? At the next RAB I decided to get their registration. They then got impatiently horny.1HHX809 Slow downCycleops702022-03-20 | The driver going way too fast through a car park, causing him to swing out wide on a tight turn onto the wrong side of the road. We both have to break hard. His entitled response; "I'm driving, you slow down". As if being in a car gives him priority over everyone else.1GKE475 MGIF before roundaboutCycleops702022-03-08 | They were going to have a go. Just to turn right? Utterly pointless.1CJI287 Left hook?Cycleops702022-03-07 | Good job I put my right hand out. It looks like they were going to left hook me. A stupid place to try & overtake anyway, on a blind bend.WN26323 Do you want to be past?Cycleops702022-03-07 | He only took notice when a started taking photos.Crossing Ocean Reef RdCycleops702022-02-20 | This needs an underpass, but Mainroads (the department of cars) wouldn't think it's worth it because it's walking & cycling infrastructure.Pull outsCycleops702022-02-06 | They both looked directly at me.
