I got left hooked four years ago and despite having numerous witnesses around, none were willing to testify and I lost out majorly.
I record my rides because footage is impartial and I do feel that burden of proof falls on cyclists all to often.
I don't look for conflict, upload to YouTube or consider myself a road warrior at all. In fact, in a couple of occasions aggressive road users have calmed down sharpish and behaved a lot safer around me after having been informed their actions are being recorded.
Ymmv and all that but I for one feel better knowing that I can provide footage should anything happen. -
I feel motor vehicles have a capacity to kill that bicycles don't have.
I'd understand if it was a huge expense or great difficulty to ride with a camera but it's cost £50 which is no more than my cycling shoes, cycling jacket, cycling bag, fancy co2 inflator or any other gear I have. The sd card can record over itself when it's done so it's a matter of charging another thing next to the garmin+phone and pressing 2 buttons before each ride to turn it on and one after.
But why are you posting on an internet forum? Are you looking for trouble? Stop looking for trouble. Get on with something more productive and healing.

^Sounds like you've already decided that drivers are 'at fault'.
@Clockwise I can think of loads of reasons why not: your life is is for living, not filming, putting every other bikeride on youtube is not benefitting you, you will just become a video making machine, always looking for shit driving and getting into one with coppers. Stop looking for trouble. Get on with something more productive and healing.
