A woman doctor who caused a horrific head-on smash which was captured on the other driver’s dashboard camera escaped prosecution – because police failed to process a report on time.

If I were to spend £200 I'd want better quality footage than that.

There's always some daft bugger out there that will buy crap like this, I don't think its even 720p resolution and the idea of putting a lock on it is beyond me, it's bloody plastic and you could break it off easily to get to the card or nick it if you didn't want any evidence. Besides  the g sensor safes and locks the file when activated in a accident.
