Every one I've used has a suction cup mount that falls off in excess heat. Annoying.
Good ideaI purchased a Clamp mount that attaches to my Rearview Mirror
The Rexing dash cams that I use have 3M double sided tape that attaches a slim mounting plate to the windshield and the cam clicks into it. No shaking, no falling off.Every one I've used has a suction cup mount that falls off in excess heat. Annoying.
I greatly enjoy watching dashcam videos, but I just can't shake the notion that while I may be creating evidence for my own use....I am also creating evidence for the other guy.
I get it....just so everyone understands that the existence of the video has a really good chance of coming out whether you want it to or not.I figure if it's on me, it's on me. I'm not going to lie about it anyway. I can't say the same for the other guy.
Kind of the same double edged sword as body cams for police. They're not a panacea.I get it....just so everyone understands that the existence of the video has a really good chance of coming out whether you want it to or not.
Hit and runs have become more problematic in the recent years. Also, eye witness statements are often inaccurate. If you have a green light but some witness says yours was red, you have video to confirm. Someone cuts you off in a fit of road rage, and hits their brakes to make you run into them. Several reasons to have a dash cam these days.Please excuse my ignorance on this subject.
Is this something that you need because you often have incidents/accidents while driving or just something you're willing to deal with just in case something ever does happen?
Other than 1 vehicle accident (other guys fault) in the last 30 years and an occasional impaired or aggressive driver, I don't remember seeing anything I would've needed or wanted to record.
Is it a piece of mind thing like insurance or a tech type gizmo that I'm too old and square to understand?
I'm not ready to recomend, my freind. I have been looking for a solution myself for some time though.
I'm not sure it will work for everything I hope, but I've run into the new 360 action cameras in relation to the motorcyle and more. I wonder if this might be a solution that could move between motorcyle and the car, along with handheld and maybe the range?
As stated upstream I think many elect to use them for purposes other than accidents. I you using one with a good field of view, it can provide coverage for the drivers window. just like home video of a person breaking into a home a picture is priceless.Please excuse my ignorance on this subject.
