Someone reported me to my employer a few days for speeding in an area where I know for a fact that I was not...as it is an area where I do pay particularly close attention to my speed as it IS an area where I suspected the residents were super sensitive about that.
Long story short, it's a long country road with about a 1/4 Kilometer of residential (maybe about 10 houses on each side) at the end where it meets Highway 2. The residents thereof would prefer was a no-truck route. Currently, it's unrestricted and trucks do use it as an alternate route to avoid having to go into the downtown area of said small town.
So, sure enough, the means to their end (to convince the municipality to make it a no truck route) is apparently to report trucks for speeding, even when they're not. Needless to say given the nature of my job my company doesn't much like that, even though there's no evidence and they can't punish me for it accordingly, but it looks bad to my head office.
So, I'm in the market for a dash cam....I figure there's some knowledge to be had here, and I know there's a lot of junk on the market.
Ideally I'd like to have one that has GPS built in so that it will superimpose my speed over top of the image. Next time I get falsely accused of speeding in this area (and knowing what I now know, it's inevitable it's going to happen again) I want to be able to pull up the footage and show that the residents reporting me are full of crap.
I know the GPS requirement puts me into a whole different price range (unfortunately), but I'm looking for suggestions.
