I posted this in my ride pics thread but I think it's worthy of a crosspost:


CN: F-150 speeding gets sideswiped and rolls a lot. Other cars get bashed in variously. My wife says "whoa".

Holy shit! No I hadn't. Somebodies lucky day. You give the cops that video?
Yup, and they acknowledged my tweet and said they're passing the video off to their motor vehicle accident investigation team.

You both drive with dash cam on all the time?
It's wired to the car and always stays up there. It turns on automatically after the car has been on for about 10 seconds (charging its capacitor until then) and turns off after a second or two when the ignition is off.

So the answer is yes: the dashcams are in both cars and are always recording if the car is on.
