More views on preventing road accidents

The person best able to see bad driving will always be another driver. He will therefore be in the best position to report it.

1. If he is equipped with a recording camera fixed to the windscreen of this car and operated by a push-button on the steering wheel he will be able to provide visual evidence of poor driving including the number plate of the erring car.
2. With modern technology his camera could record the exact time and with GPS ability the exact location.
3. The DVLA (or similar) would be called in to check the owner of the car and also the owner of the reporting car. Misuse will be easy to check and repeated errors by a bad driver will show up, and a warning sent to him together with a description of his errors.
4. Fast drivers are usually the best drivers and no speed-recording on the cameras are required.
