    You now need a camera positioned so that it captures an image they can use to estimate the passing distance. Having one on the seat stem, looking backwards with the top of the mudguard in view at the bottom seems to work.

      I expect the cops still won’t give a fuck. A 1m long flexible pole with a nail taped to the end might be better.
