- More than I can review. ;)
There are zillion types of lawsuits, from hot coffee to beef in McDonalds sandwich to matchsticks not having dumb-proof 'Match can ignite' labels...
So let's say someone buys a dashcam and involves in an accident.
It's not his fault but the other driver blames him.
He checks the footage and for some reason, dashcam has no video.
It froze or video was corrupted on impact etc...
Insurance company also decides on the other at fault driver's side and this driver has to pay deductible, increased insurance rate etc...
Now he is furious that the dashcam that could have easily decided case on his side didn't work and sues the dashcam manufacturer/retailer for all the damages.
Is that possible?
Should dashcam retailers put warning label on the product similar to GPS units that says 'It is only for guidance, not 100% reliable' or something???
What say you?
Edit: Just remembered this thread where innovv c3 didn't record the impact.
This is exactly the situation of this thread except the at fault part.
