Dashboard cameras--they are not just for cops to display crimes and other mayhem anymore (nor to mysteriously malfunction when it's the cops accused of wrongdoing).

The YouTube video after the jump shows a recent car crash in Costa Mesa caught by the dash cam of a civilian driving behind.

Stick around to the end for the slo-mo . . .

This apparently happened on Victoria Street and, as some commenters observed, it's a good thing no pedestrians were taken out.

I forgot to mention how it appears the crasher purposely drove into the other vehicle.
