Accident scam caught on dash cam

... and the scammer got charged!

I'm glad this incident is getting a lot of play in the local media.

That got me mad just watching it, I don't know now how anyone could be so calm. Even if I had a camera and this happened to me, I would still be getting charged with beating this fuckers ass.

I would definitely laugh in his face and taunt him about how f'd he was about to be....

Then again, if he would have backed out and not filed falsely, then he never would have gotten caught. Good job by the guy who got the video to not lose his cool.
