Are drivers 'at-fault' obligated to provide their dash cam?
I witnessed an accident this morning and had to stop. The driver of the car 'at-fault' (in my opinion) had a dash cam in his car.

Breakdown cover renewal
My rac breakdown cover is due for renewal so I'm thinking of going with start rescue but do they have their own recovery vehicles or do they only use local recovery firms. I would stick with the rac if the renewal price was cheaper but what I don't like about the rac is they use local recovery firms after a certain time.
