That`s an interesting point. But, surely the owners don`t submit/provide footage of their own "mistakes" do they?

If not it would be an offence and of course theres confiscation.

How long does it record for on a 32gb sd card anyone know?

what ever you chose, it has to be able to read number plates at a certain distance, which cheap ones don't, as a rule

I got this one for £35. Dodgy translation in the manual but works fine.

There is an apps on your phone called daily drive. its a free apps you can down load put your phone on a cradle in the window it works a treat...

Go Pros are excellent for many things but not the best option for a dash cam.

There's no viewfinder, it doesn't record your speed, GPS location, you can't save/delete/replay files on the go, you can't directly upload to the internet via 3G.

The cheaper and better option is to use a good smartphone app or buy a dedicated dashcam.

Okay, I've got the smartphone and just ordered a decent cradle to hold it in. Recommendations for a good app now welcome.

I stand corrected RootsBooster, Point well made.

I got myself a Roadhawk a couple years back when they were very good and very expensive. The current crop of cheap chinese ones these days blow it into the water - they have got so good so fast it's very impressive - you could get four of them for each side of the car, with a memory card, and still only pay half of what I did for just one camera...
