* In-cab cameras could protect fleets from fraud
London,EN,UK -Fleet News -22 Dec 2011: -- The Metropolitan Police Service has been helping camera company Roadhawk develop the next generation of in-cab cameras for fleets as a weapon against insurance fraudsters... Motor fraud – including systematic crash-for-cash scams – costs the UK £410 million a year, of which £93m involves commercial policies, and Roadhawk camera footage has helped the Met to mount cases against crash-for-cash gangs... A major selling point of the cameras is their ability to defend fleets against no-fault claims which would otherwise be settled 50-50 for lack of evidence or to avoid the cost of litigation... The cameras record on a loop to an SD card, but will save data if triggered by a G-force event such as a collision or manual activation...
