Been tapped a few times, but I've only had two real collisions in cars. One was before cameras were really an option. I tend to learn by example though, unlike many other people, so I was running them before I needed them

Yeah if I had a few issues like that, I'd probably camera up... what unit do you have?

I wanted to go with something that I could use on both bike and car, so I bought myself a couple of Replay XD1080 cameras. There are better solutions if you just want something for the car; cameras that turn on automatically when you turn on the ignition, and that automatically loop record.

And that's what I would go with... IDK maybe... I would consider getting something a bit more portable so it could be taken from car to car.

You might want to look at the Sony Action Cam. The long and narrow format is more conducive to use on a motorcycle than I think something like a GoPro is, and they have a bunch of accessories available. I saw them at the CSBK nationals, last year, and was fairly impressed.
