I recently had a letter through the door from the police as someone had caught me doing something a little "naughty" on their Dashcam. Thankfully I have been offered a course.
What they forgot to do was clip the registration number from the stills they sent me, and whilst I wouldn't do anything nefarious with this information, I do recall the car and their driving previous wasn't exactly exemplary...

This is the main issue with these, people driving poorly, extremely slowly, purposely annoying people so when the person overtakes then can desperately hit the save button and get some pathetic pleasure out of sending it to police with the previous 20 mins of their own ste driving cut from the video.

Yep. Some of the worst driving I’ve seen is cars fitted with dashcams. It’s like people think with it fitted they’re invincible. Question. ( I honestly don't know) - can the police prosecute from dashcam footage sent in by a member of the public? I'd have thought with the advent of CGI, video editing, IA, etc, that it could not be assumed that footage hadn't been tampered with. Or, would the onus be on the perpetrator to prove it hadn't been tampered with/made up maliciously?
Ahh, more tragic individuals desperate to arrive at the location of their next masterpiece.
The thing with a dashcam is to fit it and forget its there, if you have an accident you have the footage, if you are ranting at someone shouting "DASH CAM" whilst furiously pointing at it you are probably someone who is too invested in the whole thing having saved up to get one and are now ready to take on the world even if it means contriving incidents.

As a starter, I would settle for "submitter must include an uninterrupted 5 minutes of video prior to the reported incident". That would stop most of the DCWs in their tracks.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
