a driver ran a stale red near my neighborhood today and I had one of those moments where I realized the story would just be my word against theirs if we had touched. I have avoided getting a dash cam because the options all start to look the same after ten minutes of reading, and half the complaints are about apps or mounts instead of actual footage. I mostly want something that can show the light, the lane, and maybe a plate in decent conditions. Is a basic front cam enough for that, or is this one of those things where cheaping out is obvious later?

Which one of these(or a different similar one) would be my best option? I DoorDash in west Texas, so a lot of sun and heat. My main wants is that it has at least 2 channel, gps and 24hr parking mode. Is 4k necessary? Will 2-2.7k be fine? I really want quality and something that will actually work for under $300. Or should I get two A119 pros? Let me know!! Thank y’all in advance! Also, what is a good SD card?

The guy uses Cloudflare R2 in the video but was wondering what could be best?

Had a minor parking lot thing happen last week, I wanted the footage just in case. Didn't get around to pulling it off the card for like 4 days because life happened, and when i finally went to grab it the loop recording had almost overwritten it. Caught it with maybe a day to spare.

Realized i don't have any real system for this. I assumed the footage would sit there until i needed it, didn't think about the card cycling through and erasing the older stuff.

How do you guys handle this. Do you save important clips manually every time something happens, is there an app that auto backs things up, or am i just supposed to be checking my footage way more often than i do.

My 70mai just caught how close Optimus Prime got.

I'm having problems finding a good dashcam that will work with my car for the rear view. Getting the frontal windshield is easy but the back of the car, not so easy. Specifically it's a 2016 228i BMW convertible and the problem comes in that there's no way to bolt a rear view dash cam on the trunk and then lead it into the car, as the whole area around the license plate is used for something, to be specific..the plate, then above it is the empty grab area to lift the trunk open, to the right is a reverse camera(doesn't function as a dashcam, only used when reversing for in car computer for me to see), and to the left is a light.(A google images picture of the rear should explain it better).

Inside on the back, there's only a small plastic area right before where the convertible opens up to put the roof inside the trunk so there's no flat surface to put it on there.

Sorry if its a long read, I'm just really stuck trying to find a solution that seems impossible.

I have a Red Tiger dash cam (F7NP). What's wrong with my front camera? Cant seem to fix it

It's easy to compare features on paper, but I've found that long term ownership usually tells a different story.

For those who've had the same dash cam for a year or longer, what brand and model are you using, and how has it held up over time? Has it been reliable enough that you rarely think about it, or have you run into issues like overheating, SD card errors, app problems, or missed recordings

I'm more interested in hearing about real ownership experiences than spec sheets. If you had to rate your current dash cam after living with it for a while, would you buy the same one again? Why or why not?

I've been watching dashcam videos a lot recently, and was wondering what patterns people see in the videos poste

For instance, the ones I think I see the most are:

- instant karma where police pull someone oger

- distracted driving

- people not knowing how roundabouts work

What are some of your favorite dashcam stereotypes?

After having some kids with his 2 mates in a sh#$ box car change lanes without looking and had I not jumped on the brakes would have slammed into the front and side of my car it's probably time. Canberra drivers and getting worse and worse every single day.

I was originally thinking drivevision as its Ozzy made but then found that there is no customer support and few other issues.

Then was looking at Blackvue Brand: Blackvue
