1391217 2014-12-31 20:05:00 because people are scum, they try to bash and kill you (deliberately or just because they are stupid). even when they are caught they lie because normally there little evidence and they can get away with it. to add insult to injury, you can get done for it.

You certainly seem to have some nasty people around your way. We have nice people in this part of the world.

you guys don't have traffic down there.
part of it is i travel on a major highway with 1/3 of the countries population right next door, large traffic volumes, poor badly maintained roads, high crash aeras etc.
odds are the drivers are the same where you are but because theres no traffic you don't see it and they get away with it.

most bad drivers are your average joe blogs. how many times have you heard it from police etc that nz drivers go from being nice old ladies to raving lunatics once they get behind the wheel.
thats so true, something i have experience being a passenger and they have all the excuses you could possibly think of. they are very well trained in driving badly and thats its normal. anyone who complains is a troublemaker, "your the one with the problem" etc.

A prius driver pulls out onto the highway in front of a loaded truck leaving them nowhere to go. Driver was also fined for providing a false statement to police after they saw the vision.

a good example of why camera are helpful. if it wasn't for the camera the truck driver would have been charged.

The truck driver should be prosecuted for sound abuse, the music really.

1391223 2015-01-03 21:44:00 I have an el cheapo that as given to me. Keep it running after a friend that had one was exonerated from a serious accident when the cam showed he wasn't at fault.

The one time I didn't have mine on I was following a cop that went straight through a full stop sign in front of me. Might have been good for a "Get out of jail free card"

1391224 2015-01-04 02:15:00 I've caught cops not indicating at traffic lights and roundabouts.
Plus a lot of really weird indicating at roundabouts - 3 times when going straight through (left/right/left) :D No mean feat on a smallish roundabout, nice skills!
