I have my dashcam since two years and its always on during every drive. But the only accident i have seen so far was when i was walking around (already told that story).
Today there was a very funny situation on the parking lot of a shopping mall where i was parking. I was reversing into a parking space when i heard someone honking very hard. I turned my head to the left and saw a Mercedes A-Class reversing while a Peugeot 208 Convertible was standing directly behind it.
I was literally thinking "Don't crash please, you are out of my camera view!". Thank god the Mercedes stopped but there was nothing more left than a hair of space between both cars.
If they would have crashed and my camera was not filming it because it was facing the wrong direction i would have been so terribly mad at the Mercedes driver.
Here is the situation just seconds before it happened. In this screenshot the Mercedes driver is already almost hitting the Polo and the Peugeot came after the Polo.

now.. why exactly did i had the feeling the S5 was the major cause of it even before clicking on the link ? 
The Ram's driver claimed he thought he had a green light, but he definitely ran the red; a couple seconds elapse between when our light turns green and the collision. He should have stopped where the solid white line is on Old Keene Mill Rd. here:
The FPS is a federal law enforcement division, their beat includes secure facilities where cameras might be frowned upon so I don't know if they have any of their own. Traffic accidents on county roads aren't their jurisdiction, but other FPS officers still showed up on scene before the county police did.
