Default Video camera on dashboard

Has anyone contemplated sticking a video camera to their dashboard to use on normal roads to show the incompetance of other road users?
I only as because yesterday coming from my workplace coming up to a roundabout (near the mountbattens arms in wallisdown for those of you who live in Poole) its a dual carriageway, come up to the junction it splits into 3 lanes (1 for left indicated on the roadsign and a big arrow painted on the road and 2 lanes for straight on dual carriageway and turning right).
I'm in the middle lane wanting to go straight on to my left is a Golf V6 4 Motion (HG53 PKY) who's indicating left, no problem, I then pull out and the ***** in the golf changes his mind and goes straight on trying to fill the same space as my car, he beeps his horn I steer away, he undertakes me, pulls in front and carries on, we stop at the next junction with him giving me the v sign then pops open his door obviously spoiling for a fight.
Does no f**cker in this country read roadsigns or know how a roundabout works?

He drove like a ****, but in any event, cars in the outside lane of a roundabout have right of way, according to the H.C.

Sorry should have said the left hand lane is for left only not for straight on as well otherwise you're squeezing 3 lanes into 2.
ScoobaSteve its the one that goes to Tescos (left hand lane), straight on Dorset Way(below Lex English), right if you want to go to Canford Heath.
The roundabout is nightmare cos nobody pays attention to the roadsigns.

lol
I had that years ago. In Hemel Hempstead. I was in the right hand lane to go straight on and there was this rather large lady in the left lane. Now the left lane is for turning left only. We get half way round the roundabout, I indicate to come off (straight over) and then she pulls in to the side of me I get out of the car and go and speak to her. She's sitting there blaming me for it all
Luckily for her the damage wasn't to bad to my car so I didn't persue it through the insurance, anyway I had the car resprayed a little while after that
