Thanks to the advent of technology, we now have various resources at our disposal, with dash cams being a significant one. People often inquire about how dash cam footage can impact their case. Dash cam footage is considered one of the strongest pieces of evidence, surpassing eyewitness testimony. We consistently recommend clients to have dash cams in their vehicles, ideally with one facing forward and another facing backward.

The beauty of dash cam footage lies in its ability to capture different elements, including the scene, weather conditions, and the force of impact. For instance, in a rear-end collision where damages may not appear severe, dash cam footage can reveal the significant forward movement of the vehicle, aiding in demonstrating the force of the impact. This footage becomes crucial when presenting the case to biomechanical engineers, mechanical experts, and accident reconstructionists, who can analyze the information to provide opinions on the impact’s force and its effects on the body.

Dash cam footage becomes a powerful tool when settling a case, especially in a courtroom setting. In the absence of evidence showcasing the force of the accident, a jury may find it less credible. On the other hand, a case with dash cam footage and expert opinions becomes more believable and credible, potentially influencing the outcome of the case. In numerous instances, dash cam footage has played a significant role in securing substantial settlements for our clients.
