Lets be honest, the chances of this scumbag being caught is low, the authorities are under pressure not to approach, search or even speak to anyone that looks like the person in the e-fit. Sadiq Khan doesn’t care about these attacks he only targets motorist, so these attacks will continue to raise at alarming rate all over London. The money used to put in ultra ultra Ultra low used cycle lanes and major traffic causing LTN’s could have gone to extra Policing but no because public safety is of no importance in the Mayor or Local councils thinking
