Recomend a in car camera?
Just was involved in a near miss accident that I believe was a attempt to deliberately cause the accident.
I was driving down a feeder street, 50 kph zone doing 40-45 kph. There is a row of parked cars on the street from the curling club. I see a flash of green movement from the right and a car pulls out in front of me (he's turned right) so I hammer on the brakes and the dog does a nose plant. He has a stop sign which he didn't appear to have stopped at. The guy driving the green pos almost comes to a complete stop and then makes a left turn down the first back lane where he stops and turns and looks at me like I've done something wrong.
He gets out of his pos and I get out of my truck. I proceed to tell him what I think of his driving ability in the most descriptive language I know. There would just be a row or two of x's if I posted those here. When I use the FY words he says "FY, those words I know" in a heavy Eastern European accent and I realise this clown doesn't speak or understand English. Except he says to me "you drive too fast, your fault" So I say to him next time you pull out in front of someone maybe they don't see you and you die. I got in my truck and drove away.
I realise afterwards that all he had to say is he was driving down the street and went to turn and I hit him, which maybe was his original intent and as the accident would have been at the rear I would have been at fault. That means my insurance goes up and he gets free money from them.
So what's a decent camera to put in the truck?
