Tell me this: when recording, if you saw a motorist park on some double yellows by say a foot, so that they weren't obstructing anyone, what would you do? Would you hand the footage over to the police?

If you saw a cyclist jumping a red light on a pedestrian crossing after all pedestrians had crossed, what would you do then?

Since you're one of the "The law is the law" brigade, then presumably you would report any and all such violations to the police? Presumably it's up to them, rather than you, to decide whether each case is worth pursuing or not?

If you yourself found yourself breaking the law, and your own video glasses provided clear evidence that you had done so, would you report yourself...?
