Title: Dashcam
Post by: Shackeng on 05 March 2019, 12:31:15
I have had a dashcam for a while, but never needed to look at the card yet. A friend just had a new Lexus, and had them put one in, and it came with instructions that to comply with some law he must put stickers on all points of entry to the vehicle, stating that it is/may be recording! Is this now the law? If so I guess I need some stickers. >:(

Lexus ass covering I suspect. According to Which, you only need stickers if your vehicle is used for purposes other than your private vehicle (which I guess yours isn't?!).

Potentially, if you're on someone else's property, it may be illegal to film without making it clear that a recording device is in use.  :-\

In the words of The Prodigy, duck* them, and their law.

*not duck, obviously.

What I've noticed with dashcams is they encourage some of the population to drive in an antagonistic manor, just so they can post the video of the retaliation...

...same goes for cyclists' helmet cams.

It's an interesting idea though..... CockCam!   ;D

Black and White wouldn't do though, as you wouldn't know if you were viewing the pink or the brown place!  :)
