Not quite. Russians use dash cams because the police are corrupt. When I was working there, I had a theory that if you killed somebody in a MVA, a $1000-$5000 bribe is all it would take to make your problems go away.
Having dash cam footage at least could prove what happened despite what a police report says. We got stopped a few times, and once the cops smelled money (Khanty-Mansi region plates), they wanted a bribe.
