More and more people are recording their rides, and most police forces run web portals for you to submit your footage of poor driving and bad behaviour. The head of road safety at Nextbase — the dash cam manufacturer that runs the National Dash Cam Safety Portal used by many police forces — revealed that submissions had increased by 25 per cent since the Highway Code changes of January 2022. If you want to help make the roads safer for everyone by reporting bad driving, here’s our handy guide to the types of cameras you can get, how and where to fit them, and what to do with your footage if you need to report an incident.
We’re not worried about making cinematic epics here: an on-bike camera’s job is to provide evidence of a close pass or other incident, and to capture the number plates of the vehicles involved. There are many different cameras that can achieve that. We’ve reviewed a stack of them.
It’s fair to say opinions on visiting Los Angeles are mixed.
For many, the sun-soaked city is an epicentre for creativity and glamour, thriving on diversity and opportunity. Known for its iconic palm tree-lined streets, world-famous entertainment industry and year-round sunny weather, the City of Angels offers a dynamic mix of cultures and lifestyles.
From the glamour of Hollywood to the serene beaches of Santa Monica, there is something for everyone.
On the other side of the scales, Los Angeles can be a challenging place to live. There is a perception the city is covered in a thick haze of pollution year-round, while the notorious traffic and long commutes make gridlock a daily frustration for many.
The sprawling nature of LA can make it feel disconnected, while the high cost of living, especially housing, puts immense pressure on people trying to make ends meet. Not for nothing is Los Angeles home to Skid Row, one of largest stable populations of homeless people in the United States.

Raj Phanden, better known as Cycle Baba, has cycled about 130,000 kilometres across more than 100 countries, all in the name of sharing his message about eco-friendly living.
His project “Wheels for Green” saw him start in his hometown of Bhuna in India in 2016. Since then, the former doctor has presented more than 1,000 seminars and helped plant more than 100,000 trees worldwide, in addition to his cycling.
Sharing his travels on social media and YouTube, he is now one month and more than 2,000 kilometres into his journey across Australia, starting in Perth.
“It’s just symbolic, riding around the world for environmental awareness,” Dr Phanden said.
“The bicycle is the only [mode of transport] that is carbon-free; I’m not using any fuel or any other resources.”
