Thoughts about how useful or wise they are? Recs? Do you want the speed display? How good are they at night?

Speed display? Only if you never speed, I think.

Destroy it and get caught - it will be clear that you tried to hide your fault by destroying evidence and this will be used against you. Don't destroy it and it gets used in court, same result.



In the end I rely on myself being a cautious driver with over 30 years of driving causing zero accidents.

Exactly that! I'd rather rely on myself that potentially cause problems if I'm going with the flow of traffic.
