That's crazy. They could at least check who the truck was registered to. Yeah he could say he lent it to someone, but then he'd have to say who unless he wanted to cop the charge for it.

 About 10 years ago a large tree fell across the road in front of my house . Some IDIOT decided he'd try to drive thru my yard to get around it . WELL , he proceded to sink his truck in my very wet front yard He got someone to pull him out . All was caught on my security cameras  , including the license plate # . 
The cop's answer was "Problem is , you can't see who's actually driving so there's nothing we can do . SORRY !" 

 The cops around here are LAZY and USELESS !!!!  :police: :curse:

That's crazy. Here, they'll usually take action based on dashcam footage as long as it's clear and is reported in what they call a 'timely manner'. In other words, straight away, don't leave it for a month..!

We have a Viofo T130 which is excellent and has 3 cameras, front, rear and internal. Some people ask why the internal camera, my answer is should we be involved in an accident and the other driver claims I was on the phone, I can point at the footage and say 'No I wasn't..!'

 I have been considering getting a dashcam . As for the registration , I totally didn't think of it at the time . Either way , the cops won't do anything about it anyways as they have to physically SEE the action/infraction take place !  :poof:  I went through this a few years ago . Long story !!!

Last night I decided to go out for dinner. On my way home I pass through a roundabout. WELL, 1/2 way through , I find some IDIOT in reverse !!!!  :poof: With both feet on the brake pedal I was able to stop within inches of their back bumper . I laid on the horn and they quickly sped off.  I find it hard to understand why people in this country can't figure out how to drive thru a roundabout ! It's not that difficult !!   https://maps.app.goo.gl/WzjpRyq8RjwTUuVcA
