Thinking of getting one as support in cases of accidents. I recall
seeing
enthusiastic reviews some time back (when I wasn't thinking of getting
one)
that was about £30.
Has anone any experience of such a cheap camera?
I got one for ~£10 that seems to do the job, but from reading around it
appears that the insurance companies, police etc. aren't interested
unless it's got GPS so that your own speed, location and time can be
verified. I therefore went for the model below, but it's a tad more than
you may want to pay - £150ish.

Speed location and time is irrelevant if the video clearly shows the other
person doing an illegal manoeuvre.

But may be useful if for example someone overtakes you
when you are going at the current legal maximum speed
and misjudges the speed of the oncoming traffic and
causes an accident when they have to pull into your
lane very suddenly etc.
