Post your dash cam footage!

I know a lot of us are using dash cams and I'm sure we've caught some interesting things, so why not share them here?

To get us started, here's what happened to me today:

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lsWZs9Dqs4[/ame]



I'm fine and the car only has some cosmetic damage, so not to worry!

Just post the unshortened http link, NOT https, to your video and it should embed here directly (thanks soulreapersteve!)

So come on guys and gals! What have you got?

That sucks...I hope you got the jerk...the D.O.T./cops take improperly secured loads pretty seriously.

They didn't seem too interested when I called. I'm going to bring the footage (The rest of which shows him looking like he's pulling over and then leaving the scene!) to a local PD station tomorrow and see if they're more interested...

Another interesting bit of info: someone on reddit said they ran the plate through Carfax and it comes back as belonging to a GMC Yukon Denali, so there's that...

The link to your vid is shortened. Got to paste the full link for it to embed properly.

There are some really shitty drivers on the roads. It makes me wonder how some of them passed their road tests. Sub'd

I wouldn't have felt bad for either them though. The other jackass he was passing was doing like 45-50mph in the far left lane.

LOL There are several threads like this here. Just be very sure that you don't do a single thing wrong in the vid or some guys here will rip you to shreds for it!
