Sundew@oheso @ascentale @fbaum @bikenite Are you referring to "Operation Snap", or is that something else? #opsnap #operationsnap
Absolutely, and it needs to be adequately resourced and consistently applied (inconsistency of outcome is something that causes a lot of comment on a local #ActiveTravel group).
Again, I think @[email protected] said something about national best practice guidelines being written? #OpSnap
Patchy provision of #OpSnap is really poor - it doesn’t require much resource & works, but doesn’t exist in Scotland
IIRC @[email protected] has data that #closepass disproportionately discourage women from cycling, so not taking OpSnap seriously may be discriminatory?

Will cycles slower than you 🇿🇦🇬🇧🏳️⚧️To the blonde lady, driving a white Smart4Two, who gave me a close pass, with oncoming traffic, and gave me a 2-finger salute after I shouted, I'm ESPECIALLY going to enjoy reporting you to #OpSnap a bit later.
Will is too honest to be an MPOK, fess up - how many of these #OpSnap report mistakes do YOU make?

8 biggest Op Snap report mistakes - WillCycle
Op Snap is the system available in England and Wales, where cyclists can report bad driving by uploading video from their helmet cam. However, not all Op Snap reports are equal - do read this post about making a better Op Snap report, as well as this post about improving it even further. 1. Not
BicycleBenThis update from West Yorkshire Police is brilliant. Surely a best practice example of proactive public engagement that all forces partaking in #OpSnap should regularly follow.
phonekillsSo, should the Gloucester Police be retrained?
My take on a simple case of an evident (in my opinion) close pass.
Some learning for both members of the public participating in the #thirdpartyreporting #opsnap and the force itself.
Alex MaceGood news: A car I reported to #OpSnap for a close pass in March passed me again today in a much better manner.
Bad news: They had an unbelted child in the back, standing up in the middle. Reported to #OpSnap.
In most of the UK, cyclists suffering unsafe close overtakes from drivers can report that online to police. The quality of your report can have a HUGE impact on the outcome. Here's how to make better #OpSnap reports: https://www.willcycle.com/2023/01/18/making-a-good-op-snap-report/

In the lead-up to this post & as a direct result of my exchange with the Nat Police Chiefs' Council, I believe at least 2 police forces in England stopped using GDPR as an excuse re Op Snap reports, but more needs to happen & YOUR help is needed: https://www.willcycle.com/2023/06/27/truth-matters/
