And yes I do mean that, get a life......I was given a Rover 75 that had a dashcam fitted, and it was the very first thing to be removed and binned.

To put it into context, the owner of said car was involved in an RTA where the footage clearly showed the third party come around a blind corner on the wrong side of the road in a tatty white transit, and proceed to carve along the entire offside of the 75 writing it off in the process.

The insurers having "reviewed??????" the footage came to the conclusion that this wasn't sufficient to apportion blame to the third party

So what is the point of these devices in reality, other than to add yet another layer of interest to Russian idiot drivers on YouTube


Does it show that I'm not particularly keen on these devices

some of the stuff on youtube is quote fun to watch but see this clip and tell me if you think the dash cam was worth it or not
