In November 2019, Van Erp filmed Guy Ritchie using a mobile phone while driving. Ritchie was subsequently prosecuted and banned from driving for six months. In 2021, he filmed Chris Eubank driving through a red light, an offence Eubank was subsequently prosecuted for. In April 2021, he filmed Frank Lampard using a mobile phone and holding a hot drink while driving, but the prosecution was later dropped, due to insufficient evidence, after Lampard hired lawyer Nick Freeman to deal with the case. A regular location for Van Erp's videos and reports is a crossroads beside Regent's Park, which he dubbed "Gandalf Corner", where he waits and has stopped many drivers from driving on the wrong side of the road past a pedestrian crossing island to avoid queueing to turn right. {

} In September 2021, while at "Gandalf Corner", Van Erp ended up on the bonnet of celebrity talent agent Paul Lyon-Maris's Range Rover while trying to stop him from making an illegal right turn. Since Lyon-Maris continued to drive with Van Erp on the bonnet, he was charged with assault and dangerous driving, besides the lesser charge of contravening a keep-left sign. Lyon-Maris pleaded guilty to the lesser charge, but he pleaded not guilty to the two greater charges, alleging that Van Erp jumped onto the bonnet while Van Erp claimed Lyon-Maris drove into him and he fell onto the bonnet. A jury cleared Lyon-Maris of both remaining charges. In November 2022, Van Erp appeared on the BBC television programme Panorama, in an episode titled "Road Rage: Cars v Bikes". Personal life
Van Erp was born and grew up in Zimbabwe. When he was 19, his father, while riding a motorbike, was killed  by a drunk driver. Van Erp moved to the UK in 1998 to pursue a career in IT. He is now a professional carer. He has also worked as a roller skating instructor. He has two sons and lives in west London. References
