So, yesterday evening while I was shopping at the local supermarket one of my Mobius C2 cameras mounted in the left rear window frame of my pick-up truck captured an unfortunate incident while I was away from my vehicle. As usual my four cameras were running off of two power banks when I'm not around.
This is one of the reasons I really prefer full time "parking mode" vs dedicated motion detection/G-sensor parking mode. Two cameras will run for ten hours or more on each battery bank and just keep looping away for as many hours at a time as the memory card allows, kind of like my home/business CCTV system.
I've watched this video about a half dozen times and I'm sort of scratching my head trying to decide who was really at fault. Obviously the guy in the Toyota Tacoma wasn't paying attention. (I think he was looking at his cell phone) but the guy who got hit clearly hit his brakes at an odd moment that would be probably not have been expected. He wasn't paying attention either!
Funny thing was I didn't realize I had captured this until I got home so I was not able to offer it to the crash participants. From the looks of things they were working it out relatively amicably, all thing considered.
