A dashcam can film what’s happening around your car
AN INCREASING NUMBER of drivers are installing car dashcams. But beyond capturing some spectacular sight to share, what purpose do they serve?
• Peace of mind
A dashcam could prove to law enforcement or an insurance company that you weren’t at fault in an accident. Models with motion sensors can help identify a vandal when the car is left unattended.
• Considerations
A dashcam with 4K resolution can record quality video for insurance purposes. An SD card slot allows for video storage. Some models can upload video to the cloud, typically for a fee. —Edward C. Baig
