Make DashCam evidence for driving offences inadmissible for court
As the police pull away from the front line, is the concept of “crowd-sourced police intelligence” using dash cams the future of policing? It sounds like something out of a sci fi novel but the way it’s going it could be a reality within 10 years. A vigilante model which sets its path for failure
Using video footage as evidence of traffic offences is fine to an extent but it fails to hide what seems to be a bigger concern, that is a large decline in traffic police due to Government austerity measures.
It comes at a time when there are 27% fewer traffic police on Britain’s roads than 2010.
Let the police do their jobs, driving offences prosecutions by Dashcams are a violation of privacy!
The police should be the front line, not citizens.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Admissibility of evidence is a matter for the courts.
