It has been reported that a spokesman from West Yorkshire Police stated: “We will look at the footage and carry out the relevant enquiries.”
On viewing the footage Mike Bristow of the road safety charity Brake stated: “This driver certainly has no care or respect for any of the other road users. Selfish drivers, like the one in this video, are not only putting their own lives at risk, but are endangering the lives of other road users.”
It is of interest to note that the Bradford road safety crackdown, known as Operation Steerside has caught some 530 motorists in only three weeks.
Reports indicate that during the operation 193 motorists have been charged with speeding, 172 for not wearing a seatbelt, 55 for using a mobile phone whilst driving, 37 for having no insurance and a further 73 for other motoring related offences.
