Those are some really stupid people. I guess you don't have to have a drivers license there. I liked the wreck you car, just walk away.
 
at work right now, is that the one with the lady cutting a guy and his friend, and then hit someone and sped off?

anyways, its this reason why i want to get a dashcam. nowadays everyone thinks they've got f*cking right of way on the road.
 
Freaking hilarious and scary at the same time. There's some really shitty drivers over there as well as some shitty cars. Even the police can't drive!
 
I'd put Utah County drivers up against any and all those morons. Especially the female drivers with a load of kids, talking on the phone, putting on makeup and chastising their kids while they drive to school and work.

Very important moral in that clip; doesn't matter what the traffic regs are, if you're driving the biggest vehicle, you have the right of way!

I got a mounting bracket that attached to my motorcycle's gas tank cap, and had a rubber-isolated camera mount, onto which I could mount my small video camera. The very first time I tried it out, someone ran a stop sign right in front of me, and I just barely avoided her. I pulled off the road just to let my heart slow down, she slowed down beside me and apologized. I mumbled something and she continued on.
It was only later, watching the video, that I realized I'd recorded the incident, and her license plate number. As cameras continue to get smaller, I might someday go with a permanent installation for this very reason.

Other that to relive the incident and possibly make you madder why?

Other than recording a person leaving the scene of a accident what have you got? I wish I had a dollar for everytime someone pulled out in front of me or cut me off in a car or motorcycle to see it again interests me in the least. And take that one to the police and get laughed out of there there not gonna do anything about some fool pulling out in front you. But if it makes ya happy by all means have at it :)

A lot of motorcyclists are hit and/or killed by hit-n-run drivers. Many have families.
Insurance adjusters will choose whose story to believe, unless there's video evidence.
So will judges.
Other than that...
