Does anyone actually know the penalties if caught for hit and run?
When my car got hit and run, ICBC had my dashcam video for evidence and contacted my witness (who's my coworker) and he told me when ICBC contacted him, they said the guy denied hitting my car despite the video evidence. wtf? lol.
A few weeks after that, I just receive a cheque from ICBC in my mail reimbursing my deductible.
No real closure, and information is all confidential...
The lady who hit and run my car got a ticket for not remaining at the scene of the accident. Dumb bitch denied hitting me until the cops showed her my dash cam footage. She later admitted to it but said I took off instead. Cops didn't believe it for a second.
I noticed he was going, he tried to cut past the downhill traffic multiple times as well. If the person in my shoes didn't notice he was going, who would be at fault if there was a collision?
The guy with the stop sign is in the wrong.

How often do you guys format the memory card for your dash cams?
Would you say that it's better to format via the dash cam menu or through the computer?
Just installed a FineVu CR500HD in my dad's CX-5. There's a plastic cover that routes and hides the wire for the auto dimming mirror and homelink, works perfectly to hide some of the wire.
Trying to figure out why I get that black hazy effect along the bottom?
its wierd because it happens with both the 650gw and the 650s yet before I got this, i had the older dr380 doing the rear and it did not have any of that black hazy effect... what exactly is it? should i aim it differently? its brand new..do i have to clean the lens???

Hm..
The only thing I can think of is the fish style lens that might be in the 650. With the fish eye lens and the curve of the rear window, both can create that black hazy effect.
As a test, mount the rear 650 at a different spot with less rear window curve and see if that changes things.

My vehicle was parked about 1/2 a block down from where this happened. My rear camera is broken so unfortunately it didn't catch the actual incident. The footage on my front camera caught the sound of the incident and the vehicle in question driving away.
I have submitted the footage to the VPD and waiting for further action. Let's hope they catch this person.
UPDATE: A 67 year old man has turned himself into Police and is awaiting charges and further investigation

when the temperature gets high do you guys remove your dash cams? It got pretty warm last few days in the sun. Dont know if the constant high heat of summer is good for these electronics .
I never remove my cams, but when I run my A/C, I aim it at the windshield. Too much heat is never good for electronics, but approx 5 years of usage, they're still running ok. Aside from needing new internal batteries

I left my suction mounted dashcam in the car all summer, with the car facing west.
After a year, the suction mount warped/melted enough that the dashcam separated from the suction cup.

Almost got into an accident.
But now reviewing the footage, I think many people would have initiated the turn based on the scenario, but he technically has the right of way?
Who's fault if something had happened?

I would think you'd be at fault in this case. Generally, I'd be watching the driver going straight and make 100% sure they are stopping before making the left turn. Admittedly though, it's a bit of a douche move on the other cars part to try to run a stale orange light.
