Just over a week ago, I was the ‘victim’ of road rage. A nice young gentleman decided to cut across in front of me and come to a complete stop while striking the front left quarter of my car against his right rear in the process. He then jumped out of the car and accused me of brake checking him a number of times, all the while adopting an aggressive stance, while his pal circled around behind my car.
After getting out and making it clear they weren’t going to intimidate me, we exchanged details, took photos of what turned out to be nothing more than a few scuff marks and went our separate ways. I’ve heard nothing since so I figure it has likely blown over now. What is apparent is that a dashcam would have captured the moment this chap pulled across in front of me before stopping and then jumping out like a madman, and I could have taken this straight to the police.
Does anyone have any experience of these cameras? I’ve read lots of reviews but thought I’d see if anyone has any tips on what to look for. I quite like the look of the Nextbase 512GW having read a lot of positive reviews but I’m really wondering what sort of experience people have had with either this model or any other.
