    maglagay na din ng dashcams facing the sides and back para full 360 degree coverage! (Actually, I'm sure someone will eventually do that or has already done so.)

    The story of the guy sounds a little made up, though. OR maybe he just left out a few details. Parang the whole barangay was in on the scam.

    Cheapest quality action camera is around 3k. The clone of the Gopro. Just buy 2 for 6k mount one in front and one in the back and that should be enough. All you need are some USB extension cables and a 2 plug usb car charger to power the two cameras.

    It took me a few seconds to gather my wits about and process the situation and react by telling the guy point blank that he was scamming me. Gave him one hard look, closed my window, and just drove away.

    Sa ganitong mga modus, dapat huwag kang unahan ng takot. As long as you know/feel na hindi ka mali, tatagan mo loob mo.

    parang ganito nangyari sa akin..

    2 months ago ata, sa may martinez st sa mandaluyong.. mga 5-10kph yung takbo namin.. nang malapit na ko sa pedestrian crossing, may 3 bata na tatawid at 2 matandang lalaki.. nakatayo sila sa gilid, habang padaan ako, biglang tumawid yung batang lalaki(siguro mga 7yrs old), buti at nakapag preno ako at hindi ko tinamaan yung bata...
    pero ang medyo kahinahinala eh yung hawak ng bata ay biglang tumilapon at parang umakto siya na tumalsik papalayo sa sasakyan.. huminto ako pero hindi bumaba.. dahil sa hindi ako bumaba at umalis ng dahan dahan, nakita ko yung bata na tumayo at naglakad ulit..

    buti na lang may dash cam ako, after ko ireview ng paulit ulit at ikwento sa iba, masasabi ko na eto ay isang modus... ingat kayo sa lugar na to..

    Its funny how the widespread of this and other modus operandi is boosting sales of dashcams. Additional expense for motorists.

    I will tell them to **** off and they will never get a single cent from me.

    but i confess.. this is easy for me to say, because i am comfortable around hospitals..
    unang tingin palang sa "victim" at "relatives" maa-assess na agad kung talagang na aksidente o pro na sila.

    Question lang mga sirs, let's say you did hit someone by accident and it's the real deal. What is the best way to handle it? Kunwari minor injuries lang?

    Tapos iclaim na lang yung hospital expenses sa insurance? Paano kung pinapasagot din yung nawalang kita nila? Let's say manager pala nung bangko yung naaksidente mo at di siya makakapasok ng 2 weeks?
