Asked

Hit and run carpark car property damage: Is CCTV footage clearly identifying driver, car and rego sufficient, acceptable, convincing primary evidence without a human eyeball witness?

Answered

Thank you for the question.

If the image quality of the CCTV footage is good, then it may be relied on as evidence in relation to matters such as identification of the alleged offender and the conduct of the alleged offence. The police regularly rely on CCTV footage when investigating offences.
