It has taken over 2 weeks for these to be ‘approved’ but the quality is good

I’ll give it another go to see if it always takes this long

So what did The The Filth do?

So what did The The Filth do? In Lancashire they would simply not respond- a year ago they would have said that you can’t actually see the red light.

The link worked perfectly for me.

Here’s a red light jumper that passed me as I stopped, because everyone knows only cyclists jump red lights.

If you think the description reads like a police report, you’re right. I just copy pasted some of it.

I’ve put a few up recently and some took over a week while one was up before I’d finished the 2nd one.

Help please! The

Help please! The practicalities of using UpRide

I have discovered that the links of this form:

https://upride.cc/incident/pk68zfl_32tonnetipper_redlightcross/

link to a page which for me shows the details of the offence with date, my comments, vehicle registration etc. If I try to extract the link by clicking on the incident snapshot on the My Account page and then copying the page address, I get only the video but not the details. So my question to anyone else is: does using the link above allow you to see the incident details, or only the video? It appears that I will need to maintain a Word file with all the incidents in the format above

Another tranche of UpRide

Another tranche of UpRide links placed here in a convenient place, to show what it’s like living in an area where the police have largely abandoned traffic policing, and completely where offences are against cyclists. This lot are pretty old

I’m afraid this one is a 150 MB file despite being HEVC compressed

This is a not-very-bad close-pass where Lancashire Constabulary tried to cover-up the fact that the offending van had no MOT, by claiming that it did. It obviously didn’t, so LC blocked my email address and refused to correspond on the matter.

Although it can take a while to have the videos approved by the site, they’re very useful when they’re on, especially as you can find them precisely on the map. They’re still encouraging people to upload, but I can’t see how they can cope with demand around the world. It looks like they’re trying hard to keep motorists’ videos out, which is another good feature. You don’t seem to be able to edit entries if, to pose an unlikely occurrence, the police were later to pay any attention to the offence.

And, looking at the times

And, looking at the times (GMT), I’m on my way to Garstang in Bloom with a large sack containing spade, fork, brush, loppers etc!

There’s the odd short, steep climb but nothing of any length.

I have a 1 mile uphill drag on the way home but probably flat to you !

Aye, it’s tough in’t North, what wi’t b*****d police we have.

PS videos so far are on what we call ‘hills’- I don’t think you have those?

“barring serious injury courtesy of Sainsbury’s”

Sorry, hold last last

Sorry, hold that last paranoid post! It’s just a little ‘eye’ icon which takes an incident offline- I must have clicked it by accident

Time for an ebike at those

Time for an ebike at those speeds

It’s never time for an ebike- barring serious injury courtesy of Sainsbury’s or a few more years! However, this is interesting: my UpRide videos were only approved at 6am UK time this morning. The Sainsbury’s one has already been ‘withdrawn’ and is no longer visible. Is this pressure from Sainsbury’s?

[wtjs]

it looks like there’s someone

it looks like there’s someone else uploading near to Garstang too

I’m the only one here so far- the others are near Blackpool
