    It would be, if it was directly witnessed by a police officer who is sympathetic and not also hostile to cyclists, and isn’t already busy or “busy”.

        It’s not inadmissible in court but it’s also not likely to cause the police top open an investigation or seek charges

          I just wonder where the issue truly lies then. I mean it’s not these bad people, you have those everywhere all the time. But what’s missing in that justice system?

          Here in the nl recording someone is illegal. But if you feel threatened it is allowed and you can send it directly to the police. You’re not allowed to post it to social media though.
