You can make a subject access request under the data protection act for any footage you're in. It'd be better to do this sooner rather than later (CCTV gets wiped - sometimes as quickly as 24 hours, other times up to 2 weeks), so I wouldn't wait for the police to do it.

Had an incident on monday evening where I was hit by a car and they drove off. I reported it to the police and going to give a statement on saturday at the police station.
Yesterday I rode past where it happened and noticed CCTV directly opposite which would of seen it all. It is either owned by a Sainsburys local or a betting shop.
How do I go about checking the footage? let the police know on saturday or call them before hand? or go in the sainsburys or betting shop to let them know?
