every sunday I thank the maker for russian dashcam videos

He's lucky the police dashcam footage wasn't 'lost' or 'misplaced' as it is in so many other trials like this.

Those cops need to be suspended without pay. They are so sure their fellow officers will back them up, that their chief will hide the evidence that they blatantly do this shit on film and it happens every day around the country.. and almost exclusively against minorities.

I fear this will continue to happen as we continue to turn our police into a paramilitary force.

They had dashcams even back then

Do people usually go to check the bathroom while recording video? Or do Russians have dashcams on their bodies now?

Winter tires are great, but the biggest thing is control your speed. You can have AWD with winter tires and still slide slide.

I drive about 20k miles a year. I need to get a dashcam to record the crazies.

Hopefully they can recover the dashcam footage!

I think our driver is happy he invested in a dashcam. People often get blamed for livestock collisions just on the basis of the animal is too slow to crash into anything.

It's a dashcam video with accident, therefore surely *Russia?

(also accent sounds kinda Russian; hard to tell from the terrible audio)

Why does the video start with 03/10/13 but the dashcam footage says 16/02/2011?

For some reason, the dashcam in this russian car is shakier than normal.

I offer no argument. I was just riffing on the Russians having dashcams because of insurance terms, and government institutions not bothering to insure their property because it's cheaper to pay for any losses out of pocket if it won't bankrupt them.

Even when they're parked they need to keep those dashcams running.
