Dashcam
Jan 1, 2015 08:07:19 #
I've been using a dashcam for a year or so, hoping I'll never need it to prove I was not at fault in an accident. It turns on and off and records automatically, but sometimes I look over and see that it isn't running. I can see myself being distracted by the non-working camera and getting into an accident while trying to get it running. :D
Do any of you dashcam people notice that the camera doesn't turn on sometimes?

From the web page you sent....
-Sensor Enabled Recording Occurs as Soon as Any Sudden Braking, Impact, Rapid Acceleration or Sharp Cornering Occurs
BUT, my question is.... what if you back into someone?

I don't use "sensor enabled," just the continuous recording. I think backing into someone would be enough of an impact to activate it, but would you want to have that as evidence of your mistake? :D

Would it have a limit on continuous recording - like 20 minutes at a shot?
I certainly would not volunteer the info that I had recorded it if I backed into someone ;)

Don't now and never have used one... no distraction there.

Did you happen to check out some of the reviews on Amazon? Many people say they were sold a fake model much cheaper than what they ordered. May want to check into that!

I researched for a dashcam and found Dieselboss.com has a unit designed for truckers. It seems the truckers have a serious problem of people short braking them or just pulling over right in front.
This dashcam is about $80.00 but can record up to 8 hrs and is HD. Plus has it's own playback screen and can add a second camera.
