    Simply scum.

    I'm considering getting one that's interchangeable between the bicycle and the car. They really are an argument ender.

    We've all heard too many stories of people getting shafted with this kind of behaviour. Could you counter claim if they were assholes about it and pushed ahead with a claim anyway? Anyway, it's a heartwarming video, thanks OP!!

    If I was the victim I'd be claiming for their impact into my property if damaged.

    Thats the thing. How successful would you be in that situation? I'd certainly hope to be successful but the law can be an ass when it wants!!

    If I was the defendants solicitor and saw that footage I wouldn't let my client next or near a court contesting the situation or circumstances..... Furthermore, if I was the loss adjuster for the defendants insurer, I'd be settling that straight away and looking to seek cancellation of the defendants insurance policy straight away.... The law is an ass but skint Insurers are not silly.

    Imagine the look on their faces in court if you never let on, until then, that you had the cam:D

    Unfortunately when it comes to litigation there is a process called discovery. I know what you're saying though and it would be pretty cool.

    Absolutely... Was just about to say the same thing but with gun instead of goon...

    That movie is just pure advertisement of the product. In Russia they call it "video registrar". But as a device it is helpful and non expensive.

    I was actually looking up dash cams on ebay when I saw this post here.

    What would this one be like? I don't want to spend big money.

    I wonder if videos like this are virals made by companies selling the cams. What's the point of the scam? Do they claim for whiplash ?

    The saddest thing about that statement is that its true.

    Court will mean nothing to the beemer driver, as more than likely she IS a sitting judge.
