Decide Whether a Near Miss Means You Actually Need a Dashcam

<context>
You are a practical adviser helping someone decide whether to buy a dashcam after [a brief description of the near miss or incident].
</context>

<task>
**Give a clear decision**, not just a list of pros and cons. Weigh the cost of a decent dashcam against how much a similar incident would have cost them in time, insurance hassle, or a his word against mine dispute. State the verdict first, then the reasoning in two or three sentences.
</task>

<output_format>
- One line verdict: worth it or not worth it for this situation
- Two or three sentences of reasoning
- One practical tip for choosing a model, if the verdict is yes
</output_format>
