I'm looking for a #dashcam for my #car. It should have a #camera for both the front and rear.
Unfortunately, there are always unpleasant situations and sometimes even #coercion. When you report this to the #police, they often say the driver can't be identified because we can't always see or describe them.
At the latest, if an #accident happens and it's one person's word against another's, a dashcam would be very helpful.
Currently, my favorite is the #Viofo A229 Pro. It records in 4K at the front and 2K at the rear. Various videos show it delivers good image quality even at night.
Which dashcam do you use?

Hassle finding installer. Couple of places had said they could subsequently said weren't allowed to work on electric vehicle (higher auto electrician qualification), potential £20,000 fine, despite 12v system being same on ICE, PHEV and EV. Just avoid thick yellow cables!
Managed to find someone who does know what they are doing and is appropriately qualified. Installation tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
In theory, could DIY, but lack patience to work around car trim.

Finally surrendered and invested in a car dashboard camera, DashCam. What a shit-show the marketplace is with few manufacturers of the image sensors and SOCs (system on a chip) and lots of makers/resellers of so so products with misleading marketing (to say the least), too much featuritus over basic quality and functionality. Hard to choose.
Chosen Viofo A229 Duo 2 channel with front & rear 2K cameras. Almost went for 4k option but realised pointless.
