From Dickwod's clip, the twat on the roundabout



Now, people with better eyes than me might convince me otherwise but i read 151LH472 which comes back as a Nissan Note. That is not a Nissan Note.

I see a numberplate shaped blur.

The one with better eyes has been found

But really, based on clips like that, the gardai should pay a visit and bring a pair of scissors for the drivers license.

Very, very strong chance it's a rental.

So... how do people here who make their own clips remember when something relatively interesting happened?

I look at the time when something happens and write on a note pad "10:15 taxi - 12:00 cyclist" and so on, then later at home I look at the clip and if its worth saving I open it with Vegas and snip/crop etc. then send it to documents, In documents I'd have a few folders named "pedestrians - red lights - near miss" etc. and move it to the relevant folder, when making the compilation all the clips are in their folders ready to go!

Here is one from earlier....

1. I'm shocked at how an actual Audi driver indicated.
2. I'm not one bit surprised at how she drove after doing so.

Also can someone embed this. I have asked before and very kindly been told how but I tried the adding some letters but it didn't work or I didn't get it.
Please show me exactly how to thanks.

What's the usual lag time on the speed display on dashcams?
At the time of impact it's still showing 55mph, but it's obvious that the driver started breaking 2-3 seconds before that and would have been travelling slower than what was on the cam.

Well it says 19MPH when he came to a complete halt at 0.22 sec and didnt hit 0MPH until 0.26 sec, so 4/5 seconds?

Thats a slow enough GPS module, but for most dashcams who cares. A 10Hz GPS lap timer would be down around 0.8-1.2s behind.

There was another clip on dumpert where i wasnt sure if the guy survived so didnt post. Was a good one. Wasnt bloody or anything or visible body in the video More a matter of... cant imagine that had a happy ending.

Usually there would be a news article in one of the comments where i can read if people survived or not. And if there was still a pulse, i ll post it here.

I was wondering about other cases where the dashcam footage is used as evidence.
Is the onscreen speed ever reliable enough to be admissible?

If one is worried there is an option in settings to remove.

It is real

h3000

****head in an Avensis decides to handbrake turn twice in a highly populated area. It not the clearest in the video but it's the second car that is approaching me. He then does it again near the end of the clip. I've had my fun messing around but it was always in a quite carpark.

Did that biker even look to either side before pulling off? From that, I was thinking before he even moved "That truck's not stopping". It seemed like his process was green light, floor it, truck appears immediately ahead in sight line, brown trousers.

The max speed would be pretty reliable, there is just often a delay.

... floor it...

Not exactly floor it... He gets green light - 4 seconds later begins to move - 4 seconds later hit the side of an 18 wheeler... cant have been going more than 15 or 20kph... :eek:
Now if he had floored it he would have been across the junction before the big rig got even close!
