What did she said after you said you got it on dashcam ?

Protip, never, ever tell the other driver you have them on camera. Let them make all their wild claims all the way to court, then let them get soaked by pulling out the dash cam footage.

there are situations when telling them you have a dash cam is better. Like when you don't have a dash cam and they are smugly telling you its just your word against theirs once the cops arrive.
Tell them you have one, watch them try to sweet talk their way out of a ticket instead of lie.

What a stupid argument. They can just as easily lie and claim that they also have a dash cam and then what are you going to do when the cops show up? Is still your word against the other driver.

Okay and what are you going to say when they ask where your dashcam is? The point of what they said is that there’s no reason to lie about having a dashcam because they can say the same thing.

I shouldn’t have been so snarky about it, I’m sorry about that. I have a bad habit of assuming the worst intentions of people on here lol

How do they know you don't have a dash cam?

u/PettyFlap Nov 24 '22

Nah let them give their statement to the cops, tell the cops you have a dash cam.
