Best dash cam?

[Bro. Bill]

I’m on the road 90% of the day in my business.

Friday after noon I was almost broad sided by a young man what jumped a curb
Like to his two other cars before I swerved out of his way.
If he had of hit me it would have been a unbelievable story without any witnesses.
What cam do you use?

If this subject has a thread I missed it.

Thanks TBH In advance

Best can be subjective.

What are something's that you're looking for?

GPS
WIFI back up/sync to your phone
Cloud sync
Rear facing camera
Windshield and Passenger area

I have been running them for a decade on 4 cars. I am in my fourth generation of different cam's. Bought this one for the new car. Figure about 3 years in Houston the hot sun and you get to buy a new one...

I've got a Garmin 67W. It alerts you if you drift out of the lane, or if traffic starts moving when stopped at a red light. You can turn the speed limit recording on or off. Save videos or photos by voice control. If has parking monitoring in case someone hits your parked vehicle. You can add cameras on every side of the vehicle if you want 360 degree coverage. If you want to save your recordings on-line, that does have a monthly fee. It will automatically save the recording in case of an accident, and starts recording over the oldest footage if the card gets full.

I just got dashcams for all our vehicles at home after I got into a somewhat bad accident. Other driver had a yield but denied it. Their insurance just accepted liability recently.

Majority of dashcams are so so, especially with the Texas heat. Here are some brands that have a better reputation.

- Thinkware
- BlackVue
- Street Guardian
- Viofo

Get one with wifi if you can. If you get into an accident, you can download the video to your phone and show the police if the other driver ends up lying. If you look on youtube (dashcam lessons) 90%+ of the time the other driver ends up lying.

Two good places to buy from:
https://www.thedashcamstore.com/ (located in Austin, TX)
https://www.blackboxmycar.com/ (Canadian but another good place to buy from)

64 gig SD card is probably the minimum you want to go with. They aren't too expensive these days. The Samsung Pro Endurance works with most cameras.

I’m running a Garmin Dashcam 47 and happy with it.

I don’t use all of it notifications but it does sync to my phone so saving or viewing incidents is easy

While looking for a video on connecting my Garmin dash cam via blue tooth to my phone, I came across this video explaining the features of the Garmin line of dash cameras.
