In 25 years of driving, I've been hit 6 times; one was a hit and run. I've witnessed maybe 5 accidents (one just a few weeks ago) that could have benefited from footage. One went to court and depended on my testimony. I have witnessed a couple of altercations and nearly been in a couple. The camera might not be needed every day or every month, but I have had numerous uses for it. There is also just the plain-o fun of documenting the odd things that happen from time to time.
So, from a simple costs benefit assessment it is more than worth $35. Plus, it can be used as a backup camera or a front parking camera.
