Mandatory Camera Installation in Parking Lots in Public Places

The Issue

On November 6, 2011 my fiance and I were attacked by two men in an orange dodge charger. They told us that we almost killed them because of changing lanes, as a matter of fact we didn't even see anyone close to us (my fiance will not do anything stupid on the road especially if I am with him). They cornered us in a parking lot in Indian Trail and kept on hitting the car window on my fiance's side provoking him to step outside and fight him. I could not call the police because I left my phone in the house and I my fiance's phone was on his left pocket, I was also very preoccupied on calming my fiance down because the man's son also stepped out of the car looking for a fight and continued hitting our car (he left a big dent on the hood) we were both too shaken up after they left because they also tried to hit our car. At this point we were completely shocked with what happened that our minds were just blank. I was afraid to get out ask for help thinking they might still be around or they might do something worse. I know we should have called the police but without any license plate number or any tags at all, we thought calling them was futile. I called the property manager on that certain area and asked if they have any hidden cameras at all but they didn't have any. We were both traumatized with the experience that we could not even sleep after the incident happened. I know this might be a long shot, but I don't want any future accidents or crimes to happen, a camera is always the best solution for any evidence that needs to be produced. A parking lot is also one of the places were most crimes happen and sadly no one can convict anyone because there are no physical evidence obtained.
