imagine an app that is sort of like a panic button. You get pulled over, you open the app and hit the button which then (depending on your preferences), starts recording/streaming video and audio, locks the phone, and maybe starts recording accelerometer/gps data, etc.

It would need to be thoroughly developed/tested before actually it could be ethically recommended.

What do you think? Good idea? Bad idea? unfeasible? Already existing?

I never could find an elegant solution for video, but I do use Easy Voice Recorder on Android. Records audio only on a locked phone and streams it to your Google Drive. I've used it in a pinch a couple of times and it's performed perfectly. I keep looking for the video version of the same thing but alas....haven't found it. Anyway, it really is a fantastic, free app.
