A new SmartWitness video shows a dramatic collision between a HGV and a car on the M6. The footage captures the moment the blue Nissan Note hits the side of the lorry and then is bounced across the road and flipped around.

kp1-1(1)-1-2The collision was caused by the Nissan driver failing to notice the lorry alongside and veering into the HGV’s lane.
Thousands of incidents such as this happen on Britain’s roads each year – with both drivers blaming each other for the collision.

The difference in this case was that the lorry was fitted with a SmartWitness vehicle journey recorder.
It quickly became apparent that the Nissan driver was completely to blame.

Insurers for the Nissan driver settled the claim as soon as the CCTV was produced.
Fleet users of SmartWintess have reported savings of up to 20% on their vehicle insurance.
Insurers have found that just 2% of incidents recorded on SmartWitness cameras result in disputed claims – against an industry norm of 40% of motor claims. 

SmartWitness managing director Simon Marsh said: “Once a company fits vehicle CCTV they never go back to having their drivers operating without cameras.


“Most MDs I speak to tell me they wish they had fitted them sooner.
“It’s great to see so many hauliers being so proactive in using the cameras to improve driver behaviour as well as protecting themselves from false claims.

“This new video perfectly illustrates their worth. It might seem like a relatively minor collision, but these incidents in the days before cameras would result in a big drain on time and expense as both sides argued it out with insurers and also risked damaging hauliers’ insurance claim experience.

“Not any more – the SmartWitness footage goes off and it is settled almost instantly.”
The Road Haulage Association recently found that 54% of its members have now fitted in-cab cameras.
Marsh added: “The RHA survey is very interesting and we are very proud to be the only RHA GOLD member vehicle CCTV supplier.”

SmartWitness’s new KP1 journey recorder has been hailed as the ‘most powerful and most advanced’ in the world.
