Haven't got one myself but a friend has and his recommendation was to have one that's HD and also has positional memory and that will give the police info on approach speeds excetra.... that way if it's a nasty accident they will have g forces to look at show how fast the other car was going. That does mean unfortunately it will also tell them how fast you were going....

am going to get one as I nearly got taken out by a transporter this morning he was in the wrong lane. Called the police and they said if there was dash cam footage they could do something but as there wasn't then it was just filed against his reg number.

Been using dash cams for year's. Must admit I did some research then looked on eBay for exact same and bought 3 from China for same price as 1 cost here. Did have to wait 2 weeks for delivery though.

Word of caution on these car cameras. Keep quiet about having it if you have a crash till you have watched it back and until they have given a statement then declare in all innocence that you have the recording cos if they are telling whoppers they will make the fibs fit the film. I had a on duty copper do the total lie bit on me and we killed him with the video after he could not change his story.

Been considering getting one myself, the standard of driving these days is shocking. I'm being cut up more often, seems they see an old Landrover and they just ave to get in front. Lazy tw@ts who cut corners, been head on a few times with these jokers as I approach my street to turn in. The look on their faces for a second is oh Shit! as they swerve then they give me a foul look as if I'm on the wrong side of the road.

They don't film you as in peeper cam .... they film your driving antics .... and if something crashes into you you have evidence ... the question is they film forwards ... why if you get rear ended :eek: do you need one facing backwards too ....

And if my children are waving out the back window, they'll be on camera. I don't buy it and think its an invasion of privacy xx
