    Man, I think the garage screwed up my dashcam :(

    I have note MOT stations also don't like the dash cam working whilst they carry out the test, in fact on my wives car which has a Transcend 220 they unplugged it and removed it from the screen and left on the front passenger seat, when I took my own vehicle in for a MOT I just switched it off...
