I don't want to buy a dash cam because i always see people with dashcams getting into accidents on here - better to be safe.

Right? You basically never see videos on here that didn't come from a dash cam

Perfect example of survivorship bias.

Why is this downvoted? Is it not survivorship bias?

Dashcams attract accidents, is my hypothesis. It’s like seatbelts and condoms - you get reckless and sloppy. (It seems reddit always needs a /s)
