I forgot this too, which the gadget could be breaking the law with.

4. You can face a £200 fine if the dashcam blocks your view of the road
The Highway Code says that windscreens and windows "must be kept clean and free from obstructions to vision" or you could face a £200 fine and six penalty points on your licence.
When you position your dashcam you need to place it somewhere that does not obstruct your view of the road. If the dashcam hinders your field of vision while driving, the footage recorded may be inadmissible in court in the eventuality of a crash.
So the best place to fit a dashcam is either in the centre at the bottom of the windshield, or behind the rear-view mirror to avoid it obstructing your view while driving.

Do looking at the phone holder, one suspects this is probably going to mean a fine or/and points if the police see it.
