Two months ago, commuting to work on I-495, a major highway, and my dashcam paid off. Thankfully, traffic was relatively light because it was the day of George H. W. Bush's state funeral and most federal workers had been given the day off. I could describe it, but the video speaks for itself:

I haven't been on the forum in a while but I wanted to share another one that I caught on my dashcam a month ago. Light traffic because of quarantine, etc.; my job has been deemed important enough that I'm still commuting. I hung around to give a witness statement but so far no one has called to see the footage. Once again, the video speaks for itself:

Did the Ram run a red light? The Mazda and the police car should have seen him coming.

I guess since it involved a police cruiser, you statement may not be needed.

The Ram's driver claimed he thought he had a green light, but he definitely ran the red; a couple seconds elapse between when our light turns green and the collision. He should have stopped where the solid white line is on Old Keene Mill Rd. here:

The FPS is a federal law enforcement division, their beat includes secure facilities where cameras might be frowned upon so I don't know if they have any of their own. Traffic accidents on county roads aren't their jurisdiction, but other FPS officers still showed up on scene before the county police did. :tongue:
