By some strange worm-hole in the time/space continuum (just watched Dr. Who)...both yesterday and today I witnessed two relatively minor transgressions of road safety that had me cringing hoping I wasn't going to witness something horrible.
My question is: should I have reported either of the following to the police and if I had, would they have really done anything about it?
1) kids playing on the main road near me - using skateboards to across the road and back repeatedly (fairly busy road at the crest of a hill with restricted view). I slowed loads as they really weren't paying attention and one subsequently nearly came out onto the road right in front of me.
2) biker pulled out in front of me (safely) and I noticed he wasn't wearing a crash helmet but was wearing a scarf across his nose/mouth(!) and looked very young...started off at 30 or so (speed limit) then after glances back at me accelerated to may be 45/50 and proceeded to overtake parked cars round a blind corner on the wrong side of the road

And if had decided to report them should I use 999?
