Quite lucky that the road was empty, as im sure I veered to the right. Anyway, I had to pull over to 'recover', if you can put it like that. After about 10 minutes, my head was banging.. and I suffered a migraine as I got home. (Lights, Strobes.. etc seem to affect me)
Bloody road was a 40mph limit, completly open (Rural) and it didn't really pose any threat to be doing at least 60 there. So yeah, this camera was dangerous.
