I would prefer a little more in this case though. If every car had a video camera aimed out the front doing the same thing it would make my life easier as a claims adjuster. Naturally no accident is ever anybody's fault. Not to hear them tell the tale.
"I saw the car ahead of me stopped but I thought he was going to go so I didn't stop and hit him." Please, don't ever be that stupid. If the car ahead of you is stopped YOU STOP, end of discussion. BZZT! There are no ifs, ands, ors or buts.
Here is a perfect example of a reason why a camera would make a difference:

Nobody ever comes out and says "I saw the red light and just didn't want to stop" so here is what was actually said "As I was approaching the light at 2-3 mph the light turned green and I proceeded into the intersection with all of the caution that is humanly possible. Do you think this will affect my rates?" So, the claims adjuster has to take this statement and apply it to what the other two victims state which pisses them off because they probably went to the hospital and now have to worry about going to the poor house from doctor's bills and then they are suddenly in a very standoffish mood.
If there was a camera in the car recording what is happening ahead of the car like this one you would know without even having to talk to your less than observant and morally ambiguous driver.

Now, aside from the people that were talking and saying "lay down" for 20 minutes and pissing me off did you see how the guy trying to do the u-turn blatantly lied about hitting another car? Nobody was near him, he is just an idiot and would not admit it. I hope that motorcycle rider got $1,000,000 from that dipshit dumbass.
If you can't tell this kind of thing gets me riled up. If I was the cyclist that got hit I would have, no matter how injured, tried to make him equally injured for his own stupidity's sake.
