UK government presses TikTok and other platforms to pull dangerous driving clips
A UK minister said officials have already instructed social media companies to remove videos glorifying dangerous driving, arguing platforms understand their algorithms and the financial incentives that reward outrageous content. Downing Street backed Ofcom to enforce action against non-compliant platforms, while TikTok said it proactively removes videos breaching its rules, including an account allegedly belonging to a driver named Saddington.
