Let's have a little wager

I have just been sent a button camera and PVR kit with a 32gb Micro SD card for a special assignment I have to do.

The camera will be mine to keep for a month or so, sooooo… who wants to wager how much bull ■■■■ I can record in one DCPC session?

Would be a very interesting task. Not too sure about legalities but for my original intended purpose it is fine, but to film a training course… not sure.

Anyway, as they say “Place your bets”

Im going for:

£1 on winding handle fines @ 10:1
£10 on Drivers Hours Regs being wrong at 2:1
and £100 on me falling to sleep at 1/10000 as it is a dead cert

Special assignment? Cool story bro…

In my spare time I have been known to do a few “Mystery Shopping” assignments.

Very special and very secret :wink:

If the classic " leg wind fine" comes up can you find out if they put it in slow wind? I’ve asked Vosa when I’ve been stopped but they said it was bollox but what do they know?

If I hear that I will be posting it straight up here with video proof.

You may not hear anything after that as I will be laughing my ■■■■ off

I’ll have £10 on someone saying “well my mate said…”

What are your odds for giving wrong information about split breaks?

Can you still do 30 minutes followed by 15?

I haven’t had that in any course yet so I am guessing quite high.

The 15 minute WTD break after 6 hours is normally dismissed as wrong by the trainer so probably low odds on that one.

D`ya think 32GB will be enough b/s capturing capacity? Might need a 64!!

How about,

A friend of mine drives coaches as well as trucks, does he need to do 2 lots of DCPC? :wink:

32 gig is the limit.

Should be good for 5 hours, might have to drop quality down or take 2 cards.

Still not sure on legal implications, could always distort faces and sound

Why dont you devise a ■■■■■■■■ bingo card. similar to this one. make up your own phrases and shout line or house :smiley:

Wing and a prayer:

Legalitieswith rgards the usage
"There is an exemption from the requirement to comply with the eight data protection principles (and the requirement to notify the Commissioner) where personal information is processed by an individual only for the purposes of that individual’s personal, family or household affairs (including recreational purposes). This exemption falls under Section 36 of the Data Protection Act 1998 (the Act).

Where the exemption applies, because you are only using the information you have collected in your personal capacity within the limitations of this exemption, you would not therefore be required by the Act to notify individuals that you are collecting their personal information, or to obtain their consent to process it."

Battery life is going to be a bigger problem than card storage in my view.

How did it go trubster?

Battery life may be an issue.

I am not doing it until next month so will post the results here. Might be better battery wise for audio recording.

Ill have tenner please on when they say “when I had my own transport company” or “when I drove to the Far East” when you know full well they’ve never bloody sat behind the wheel of a lorry.

What make/model of camera is it? Some have the ability to record whilst still being charged, run from an external power pack. Some even use the old mobile phone batterries. In the latter you can ask if you can place your phone on charge, swapping when needed.

The one thing you don’t want it doing is making any noise so use the time to learn how to silent every alert possible.
