Why you should drive with a dash cam

m34SPD · 02-18-2012, 01:34 AM

This Civic is what I bought after my TSX was totaled in 2010. Well, now my Civic is totaled. Guy driving tried to say I brake checked him. Told him I have the whole thing recorded, he shut up.

Was that a phone you were recording with? And your car was totaled from that hit? How much damage?

cooler2442 · 02-18-2012, 02:00 AM

Which dash cam / system are you using?

m34SPD · 02-18-2012, 02:42 AM

Its a Canon G12 with a PanVise 809 window mount.

Yes, my car is totaled. It has 165K miles on it, but sustained frame damage.

Wow. I doubt you want to get rear ended. A bumper is not worth your life.

That retard was following way too closely and not paying attention to what was to the left and in front of him. Besides, it was raining and he either was driving too freaking fast for conditions or was distracted by his cell like most other drivers (douche).

Hope you're not injured.

The accident happens at 3:08 for anyone who doesn't want to listen to bad music for 3 minutes haha.

That dude was obviously not paying attention and following too close. He got what he deserved. Don't settle with the insurance company about personal injury yet.

That wont be for a while. Have to start treatment all over again

Plus I got an attorney because injuries are far worse than last time.

johnniewalker · 02-18-2012, 06:21 PM

wow, there was a similar case in toronto, maybe that one was worse, the guy reversed into his car and tried to make him cover the damages.
i am surely getting a dash camera.

Glad you are somewhat okay though, that looked like a really hard hit!

m34SPD · 02-22-2012, 01:40 PM

It was. He was going 50-60MPH

atown88 · 02-22-2012, 02:05 PM

Yeah man, glad you're ok! So are you constantly deleting data everytime you drive?

No. My camera has a 16GB SD card. So I just delete videos when I get to the place I am going.

Eternal · 02-22-2012, 04:37 PM

Glad your alright, but dang. I was watching and wondering when and it made me jump just seeing it. Never thought of running a camera all the time.
