Dashcam thwarts insurance scam on New York City's Belt Parkway

Is this specific to traffic law? Otherwise how is the dashcam video evidence different than security cam video in a criminal investigation of a crime the detective did not witness?

I know in my state, traffic law can be very different than criminal law. But it would seem there is a crime going on here. Maybe it needs to be passed from a traffic investigation to a criminal one?

Couldn’t the real victim file a criminal complaint?
