A recent incident has sparked a debate on the necessity of dashcams in vehicles. A social media user shared an unfortunate experience where her husband was rear-ended by a semi-truck. Despite the minimal damage and no injuries, the couple faced difficulties in dealing with the aftermath of the incident. The truck driver refused to share his details, leading to complications with the insurance claim. The couple was advised by the non-emergency line to exchange information instead of filing a police report, given that everyone involved was unharmed.
