You may have to start the ball rolling quickly though, because I am unsure how long footage is kept for and it may well be wipedrecorded over fairly quickly.

I think ours only record the inside.

BSRU said:Would that mean the company would have to obscure anyone else's face or personal details such as reg. plates or cannot it be viewed raw?
