Traveling North on I85 yesterday afternoon; two exit lanes, I'm in the left exit lane, white Infinity SUV attempts to pass me on the right in the exit only lane and hits me coming back left; tells cop I changed lanes into him. I asked the cop, does it make sense that I would change lanes into a car that is clearly in my vision? He issued no citations due to conflicting stories. This is the fourth time I've been hit in less than three years, twice sitting still at a light.

That sucks!!! I HATE Atlanta traffic too. 60% of the drivers are on there cell phones 100% of the time. It's very scary for sure.

[Stangkiller]

Thats terrible! So sorry to see that, really helps set the need for a drive cam though

[Craig]

My wife's sister said the same thing about having a dash-cam. They have one in every vehicle. My luck, I'd cause a wreck and have it used against me.

When I was trucking Atlanta was on my list of scary roads....I75 or the ditch as I call it....about 12 lanes wide and everyone doing about 85mph. Crazy, and they pass anywhere, any lane, any time. :willy:

Sherman wasn't that bad of a guy after all, hu?
He at least had the right idea.

Note to self - run PDR when driving in ATL.

Dash cam X eleventy million ! I had the same thing happen to me in my truck. With the dash cam video, other driver got a ticket and her insurance paid the claim.

Same shit here....stupid already....wife had been slammed in the rear FOUR TIMES while standing in line at a stupid light....last time was at 45 mph and cost us 2 grand out of pocket, much less the new engine I put in the car that was totaled.....and so we have lost TWO Silverados to other careless drivers....another 6 grand lost...INsurance in Florida is not worth the bother.....

3 vehicles ALL to illegals not that the cops give a shit....orders from above, I"m sure......

:issues::issues::issues:

This is exactly why we have dash-cams in EVERY car. Assholes lie, and cops will issue no tickets due to it.

We've talked about it several times today, probably going to do it. Any suggestions?

My SUGGESTION- I have a BOOM dash cam. From Russia. Front and rear view, GPS and loadable software. Recordable and selectable points such as speed. Only when you watch with the loaded software on the memory chip does it include everything.
The camera is for your protection. Not to incriminate you. Make sure you buy a camera that does that.

Sounds like a very good choice :yesnod:

Sorry about your bad luck

I avoid Atlanta like the Plague. Too many cars, and even more idiots. Sorry about your car, but you are ok, and it can be fixed. That said, I would be a hot mofo...

I should have thrown the scrawny, lying sack of shit into traffic before the cop showed up.

[Craig]

$3300. Not as bad as I thought. Right front wheel reconditioning (if it proves to be true) will be covered, I'll have the other three done for another $700.

I have the same one. I think I bought it after your post.

[Craig]

This is the one I'm liking best, very low profile.
