Most of these things start as a gadget that is nice to have then progress
through to becoming standard equipment,the next stage is they become
mandatory . With dash cams how long before the recordings are required to
be retained for a period by law with the Police or other government bodies
having the powers to acquire any of them as evidence even if that is
against the wishes of the vehicle owner.
On the face of it such things are seen by some as nothing to worry about if
you are an honest citizen,
you may be but it wont stop your car getting torched if a local scroat
thinks your parked car contains a record of him doing a drug deal.
