Where do you think all the crazy Russian winter driving videos on youtube come from?

Many people have dash cams in corrupt countries for self protection. As shown by WmRMeyers, they can save you from being accused of breaking the law.

We don't need corruption; we have insurance companies who hire lawyers and pay lobbyist. Add in the lack of driver attention these days, which are a few reasons I have given some serious thought to a system. I doubt anything facing forward only would be of much value to me though. But something similar to the Ford system would be nice.

Wow, all the discussion on this turned to cameras and my first thought was what I could use that piece of angle iron for.

Me too! But I did find a few other things to talk about... Gotta save my pennies for some more and larger chunks of metal!

Here in the UK the Police now ask for dash cam recording evidence for all sorts of crimes, as well as having upload sites for reporting dangerous driving, many of us record as the favourite 'crash for cash' was to have the criminal swerve in front then stand on the brakes, often with the brake lights disconnected, one gang when finally caught on camera were estimated to have caused well over a million pounds worth of insurance claims! I also ride with cam's on the bikes and helmet, it doesn't stop the stupid, often mobile distracted, but it does prove who was at fault if you can't avoid the situation!
