if your not doing those things, you have nothing to worry about.  We all do stupid things behind the wheel at some point, but there are those that do them all the time, which is why the camera intrests me.    something else that could be useful, is if you encounter a drunk on the road and are fallowing them( always fallow)  while on the phone with the police.  You could be recording things.  You never know whos life you might save by doing that.    yeah it sucks to be a narc, but when you doing something dumb puts others at risk, i don't feel bad about it.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

I have sped, kinda hard not too....  I don't roll through stop signs and never tailgate...one of my pet peeves....

I've called the local PD while following an intoxicated person on more than one occasion with the appreciation of the local PD.  I don't consider myself "narc-ing" on anyone.  Once, more than one motorist cornered a drunken women into a parking lot until the local PD showed up to arrest the drunken dumbass... 

Still won't mount a dash cam...never will!  I'm no saint but anything you do to find fault in someone else will eventually come back to bite you in the ass!

TAB,

Why are you on the phone while following (not how we spell follow in the United States) the drunk driver?  It has been proven that talking on a phone, even with hands free, is the same as driving impaired due to substance use.  Your camera and phone conversation just put you in the same boat as the guy you were following.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.
