Most of these clips are motorists thinking they are too
important to wait for others. This coincides with my own
experience.

Strange how many dash cam users are willing to show the world
how poor their own driving is.

Those videos could usefully display speed - strikes me a number
of those near misses happened at least in part because the
cam-car was going too fast.


Most of them seem to be unable to anticipate and are late starting
to slow down. Then take up valuable workload capacity by using the
horn.


A lot of these dash cammers are drama queens, especially
motorcyclists. They see a developing hazardous situation and only
take action at the last second just to get one on tape for Youtube.


Less than 10% of these clips show a hazardous situation...
