“That’s really close – I could have touched that!” was the reaction of a cyclist who was subjected to a very close overtake last week in Norwich. However, police only issued the driver with a warning letter, and the rider is now calling on other cyclists to share with him their experience of submitting footage to the force.

The link to the video on YouTube was sent to us by road.cc reader ThatGuyOnTheBike, who said: “I was amazed how close they got and where they chose to pass me.

“I'm a regular submitter to Norfolk and Suffolk Operation Snap who can be pretty good. On this occasion though, they decided that a warning letter would suffice.”

He added: “I'd also like to hear how others have found our local Operation Snap //thatguyonthebikeagain [at] gmail.com" target="_blank">via this email (link is external).”

Extraordinarily bad driving, choosing to pass at the most narrow and dangerous point. Surely that should get more than just a warning letter?

I don't even know this got a warning letter as such, the feedback I got said they'd offered words of advice, the van is veering further in towards me to at this point to avoid driving into a keep left bollard pinch point.

The vehicle was SORNd at the time as well.
