I had a case the other day where our client caught an accident on his dash cam which proved the other driver was totally at fault but this person was full of accusations and lies. As soon as our client told him he had it all on dash cam the other guy went off on one saying it was illegal to film him as he wasn't giving permission for himself or his car to be recorded etc.

So just for clarity, as long as it's on public land you can record someone who you've just been in an accident with even if they object but keep in might how it may antagonise them.

You can also record on private lands too (ie Tesco car park etc) just as long as the owners don't object and to be fair in this sort of situation it's unlikely that they'd refuse.
