Bike-mounted camera nabs hit & run driver
One hit & run driver will pay for his crime. This video is too good to believe. Berkeley police arrested driver upon viewing license plate in video.
Fast forward to 2:38 to see the crash.

Wow, they got the license plate from that?
I'm starting to have thoughts about riding with a video camera in traffic. I'd probably never look at it but how many of these incidents never get prosecuted because it's easier for the drive to just take off?

That's what I was thinking. Not to mention going straight in a right turn only lane. They should have handed him a citation right on the spot.

^ Wow did you notice the waist on the one on the far right? I don't think she's too fat for this sport.

holy crap...my palms were sweatin' watching that. Glad to see those guys are OK. Now I'm thinking it's not a bad idea to start filming as well just for this very reason. I think it might be wiser to maybe face the camera backwards though.

most cars where a driver is distracted - texting or talking this is what happens.. I like how the owner told the cops his car was stolen.. video evidence hard to overcome.
