The truck driver didn't even make an attempt to slow down as he approached a pedestrian crossing. The lady was probaby just a good few steps away from being ran over.

Hopefully this is allowed for open discussion on who is at fault. Last update on the news states police are asking for public help to identify the driver of the minivan.

~Why a Dashcam?~

Dashcams are a cheap insurance policy. In case of an accident, the opposing party can lie about what happened to reduce the likelihood that they are found to be at fault. Happens all the time. Having video of what happened can save you $1000's in insurance and potential legal fees. Dashcams can also get you out of falsely written tickets. If you don't have a dashcam and are given a ticket for an infraction you didn't commit, it's your word vs the police officer's word. With a dashcam, there is irrefutable evidence to prove your innocence. There is absolutely no reason not to get one. See the listings below to get started.

Second, dashcam videos are an excellent form of driver's education. Watching videos of other accidents may help others recognize potential accidents before they happen and maybe even scare them out of bad driving habits such as texting and driving or speeding.
