Pretty impressive the car behind them was able to avoid it until they reversed all the way.

Yeah, I mean if someone is purposely going out of their way to crash into you and get you to stop then that's pretty concerning. And then they roll out 4 deep. I realize some women, but I was not expecting to see 4 people come out.

I bought a dash cam on Amazon (Red Tiger) and put it in my car myself. I needed one I could plug into cigarette lighter and string the wires myself. I did an awful job (likely to get strangled by wires) but I have the front and rear cams going.

i had been hit and run sideswiped, which was the final push for me to finally get one.

The brands/types/configurations are endless….just be sure to get front and rear cameras. Some also have a third camera that films interior. If I was driving Uber or lyft I would DEFINITELY include that as well.

Seems like you could press charges they intentionally but you at risk backing up into you

I absolutely would, and I have never in my life filed a law suit.

Neurosurgeon Shamieh, MD, Khader Samer - Avala Spine was the doctor named in the Federal indictment in the New Orleans trucking insurance scam case years back. The feds say his office sent black Suburbans to pick up the scammer and bring them to Covington for medical evaluations. I'm sure he claimed not knowing anything about insurance scams and he was just treating their injuries, but the dude is bought and paid for by the plaintiffs bar. If you look him up he's the plaintiff's medical expert in numerous cases. He's wasn't charged with anything, but it certainly stinks!

I bought the Orskey 1080 P on Amazon in 2021 and have used it every day and take it on vacations when I’m driving a lot in a rental car. Works Great. It’s $43.00 on Amazon right now. Uses Micro SD cards. Has front and back camera although I’ve only ever used the front camera.

Specs:

Brand ORSKEY
Model Name S800
Orientation Front
Vehicle Service Type Car
Connectivity Technology USB

These scams have been going on since at least the late 80's as I recall.
