In order to enable an owner of an unattended parked vehicle to identify a party that struck the owner's unattended parked vehicle, the present invention provides for a method,
system and computer-readable medium for integrating operation of an on-board recorder with one or more vehicle-mounted cameras. Whenever an
impact of sufficient strength is detected by an
impact detector on a vehicle, feed from one or more vehicle-mounted cameras, which have a
field of view that encompasses the striking vehicle, is sent to the on-board video recorder. The feed can also be sent to a remote
receiver, such as a computer, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a video-enabled
cell phone, or a law
enforcement monitor.
