SAMPLE RESULTS of CCTV:
- It seemed like a simple plan. Just go into the Laundromat when nobody is there to see you. Bring along your crow bar.... break open the coin boxes.... take home a pocketful of quarters. "Nobody will know who did it." One camera, one time-lapse recorder, and one monitor ruined this plan. The "KEY" to success was a mini dome camera that could not easily be damaged.

Accidents happen. A truck driver accidentally turns too much and sideswipes the gas pumps. Unfortunately he got out of his truck, surveyed the damage and drove off thinking nobody saw him. The dispatcher said: "If one of my drivers had an accident he would admit it.". Then the dispatcher watched the video tape. Inside the store, the employee was stocking the shelves and missed seeing the accident in rear of building. Four cameras, a quad splitter, a time-lapse recorder, and a monitor told the service station owners, the dispatcher, and the police the full story.

Some times people get careless and try to cover up their mistake:
Here a young teenage driver is speeding out of the gated community so fast, the gate does not have time to go up. The teenager goes to the Homeowner's Association President and demands that the Association pay for damages to his Jeep because the "Gate came down on his windshield" as he was driving by. A review of the tape showed the speeding Jeep hit the gate while the arm was still on the way up.
