One day while going to work on my bicycle and one car tried to hit and run while passing me by (I had to do evasive action) and I didn't have time to read the license plate number. (And even if I did and reported it, nothing would happen since there is no witness or evidence.) I had more close encounters with cars (driving too close). I decided to buy a camera to be mounted at back rack of my bicycle and in movie mode constantly monitor all cars behind me.
Didn't want to buy expensive camera because I wouldn't believe it will last too long and not too cheap, so I could still recognize license plate number of cars passing by. Purchased Kodak EasyShare C613 6MP camera and mounted on my rear rack directly, no cushion, so basically the camera was attached directly to frame of the bike. It had to absorb all bumps and hoops all the way. Used it all year long and I was very surprised, that the camera still works like new. I have to give it maximum points.
I didn't have any close encounter with cars since then. The camera on back rack was quite visible (silver body) and small red LED is lit all the time and every driver behind me new immediately that he is on camera and passing me by carefully with save distance between me and car.

I received this camera as a gift, and started using it right away. No problems. Fantastic product.
