Quote from: Ethan Tremblay on November 10, 2025, 03:24:49 PMThe main reason I got mine is for what has already been mentioned, too many cnuty drivers about doing daft things.  Almost on a weekly basis I will see some genuine dumb shit like reversing onto a main road or overtaking in stupid places. 

Or a truck that decides to reverse across a level crossing!

I had an R driver pull out in front of me (at 45mph) joining the M1 from the Applegreen outside Lisburn. I was being overtaken at the time so couldn't move over - scary how new drivers are taught how to reverse around a corner but aren't taught how to drive on a motorway!

How could it be used against you if it shows they are at fault?

Do you de care you have it to your insurance?  Or just use it in the event of your own needs.
Id say insurance will prob knock a tenner of your quote.

Could the other parties insurance company ask to see any footage and use any misdemeanour against you eg being over the speed limit etc. even if the other party appears at fault.

You can show them if you want.. Its yours not the insurance company..

Dash cams are  a lot more common . Footage would obviously cut down on claims ,  yet we're all been ripped off when it comes to car insurance.

Mine has practically doubled in  the last two years. Many are the same. So why aren't  costs  coming down?

Because the f**kers are interested in their bottom line only, and they know that we've no choice because of the police state we live in but to pay it..
