Road policing officers in Aberdeen stopped a number of drivers as part of a campaign to improve the safety of cyclists on north-east roads.
Operation Close Pass involved plain clothes officers cycling on bikes which were fitted with recording equipment.
A total of 28 motorists and members of the public were spoken to and were educated about how to pass a cyclist safely.
Motorists were also shown a visual representation of the passing distance required when overtaking a cyclist within the car park at Duthie Park.
Sergeant Peter Henderson said: “Road safety is an absolute priority for Police Scotland and as we approach summer it is likely there will be an increase in vulnerable road users, such as cyclists.
“We will continue to carry out Operation Close Pass across Aberdeen and encourage anyone with concerns to report these to police on 101.
“It’s vital that we continue to proactively intervene to keep all road users safe and that all drivers recognise the importance of giving cyclists space. However, be assured that we will take enforcement action wherever necessary.”
