After some nut job tried to kill me jamming on his brakes mid corner because "I was going too fast", and reading about these scum causing collisions deliberately, it seems to me that a little in car setup might be worthwhile as a way of dealing with these imbeciles.

Any reputable kits? Recommendations?

If you'd have hit him though, wouldn't it be your fault? Not for a second trying to defend the other driver but I was always under the impression that if you go into the back of someone, it is your fault. Wouldn't the camera just prove that?

I know what you mean about cameras though, my mate is looking into them, but they'd only be for an in car screen, wheras presumably you'd want one with interal memory

I've posted about the DriveCam before - it is a solid state buffering flash recorder which detects harsh movements and dumps the video to an output. I've put a few vids up here (nothing that interesting though):

That quality isn't that good though, I would say go with a cheap no-name multimedia recorder thingy and a good quality bullet cam.
