I've seen enough YouTube videos to strongly think about getting one, especially for in my collector car.
My "favorite" video was one from Britain (I think) where a lady was driving down a narrow side street in a row of... brownstones? The row houses all connected o one another?
Anyway, both sides of the road were lined with parked cars, and there was only one lane. The lady was coming to an intersection, when a guy pops out between two cars, pushing a scooter (motorbike) like he was getting ready to hop on at the intersection. She comes to a stop behind him, he suddenly stops and hauls the bike rearward, slamming it into her car. He then jumps up and flops onto the hood (okay, bonnet
) then rolls back into the street.
He gets up, clutching his back and acting in terrible pain, when another guy comes out of the other side of the street in a t-shirt and shorts, acting and gesticulating like "I saw everything, I'm calling the cops!"
The lady by this time has gotten out of the car, and points back to the camera, at which time the cyclist picks up his scooter and both of them book it in opposite directions like their hair's on fire.
It was clearly and obviously a setup, either to make an insurance claim or more likely just to extort some pocket money from the lady- tell you what, we won't call the cops of you give us 100 pounds.
And without the video, it would have been
very hard for the lady to prove otherwise. WITH the video, it was a plain-as-day setup.
Doc.
