Brake checked

[Catt57]

Like mentioned above 98% of the time it is the one in the rears fault but if you have some way of proving that they did indeed brake check then its their fault but that is hard to prove unless you have a dash cam or someone witnessed it that has one.

This. Without proof the assumption is you were following to close. Get a dashcam to prove it was the other driver's fault.

If you are a good driver, a dash cam might help you one day. IF you are a bad driver that same dash cam might seal your fate (if you destroy evidence it gets worse.)

I have thought of getting one but really dont know anything about them so wasnt willing to pay for something that wasnt going to last very long and also i would want it to record in all 4 directions to cover every angle.

Mine does front and rear with a wide angle, not sure of one that will cover 360 except the built in one on a Tesla.

You can get small cams pretty cheap...

Curious why people don't have them.

Mine paid for itself shortly after I installed it.

I'll have one in any vehicle I own.

Rexxing from Amazon, it's about 4 years old now so I'm certain there is a new model. The interface is clunky, but it does it's job. It was $109 then, plus an install kit to hardwire it, I had an Amazon $50 gift card so it was about $70.

For me, it's like home security cameras. I want them and keep intending on buying them, and then I start researching them and get bogged down in the whole "is this one better than that one or is that one better than this one" loop and end up going off to watch YouTube. :-)

I'll make you a great deal on a Night Owl system --- got it $100 off MSRP after I decided not to use it

If you get brake checked and it worried you, most likely you are too close, heavy traffic is another thing but speeds probably slower. On the other hand when they cut in front of me then do it, well I have good insurance and drive a suburban, f them.
