They wanted to make sure I was prepared to make a statement if the driver contested and wanted to clarify the camera position on my bike. Said I'd get an email when they issued the TIN and let me know the outcome.

I made a mistake today, got a close shave punishment pass. Caught up down the road at the lights and knocked solidly on the left passenger window and told him to leave 1m. He shouted something and did a burnout as the lights went green, then pulled over 100m down the road and got out of the car and stepped into my path... I pulled over, and he shouted it was my fault because I have to ride to the left of the white line (this being the edge of the road, into the shoulder/dooring zone/BAZ, where there were parked cars. Foolish of me, lucky nothing else happened. If he looked stronger than me I would have kept going and not pulled over...
