If you got hit at around 6:40 am this morning on 295 north by a speeding car…

Thank you OP for posting this. Hope it helps someone. Of note, I recently upgraded to a Viofo A229 Plus dashcam, and that thing has fantastic resolution. It has gotten more expensive because of tariffs, but in my opinion, still worth it. I got the rear dash cam as well.

When they tell their insurance they had a green light but you got the video

Get one. It's peace of mind. I have a Viofo A229+ and it's fantastic.

Hit and Ran by a Semi ‼️

To anyone reading this: Get a dashcam. Viofo A229 is good but almost any will do. Practice using it. Learn how to download footage off the camera. Make sure you have uninsured motorists coverage for both bodily injury and property damage. Wear a seatbelt and don’t speed. Good luck out there.

Why are these people on the road?

Absolutely love it. VIOFO A229 Plus. Got it from Amazon for $130 if I remember correctly. Great quality even in low light as you can see and also has parking mode.

get a dashcam or this could be you next

And get something that uses a (super-)capacitor as opposed to a battery - the former holds up to extended periods of high temps. This used to be a much bigger issue ~10 years ago, but it's still good to check and make sure Don't forget a high-endurance SD card. Not the run-of-the-mill cards As far a

Eyesight and backup cam as dash cameras

I remember someone saying how much of a legal logistical nightmare it would be to have built in cameras function as dash cams which made a lot of sense to me. So short answer no the programming wouldn't allow it and you can't really "hack" eyesight systems in a way that would allow this. I have viof

Two red light runners receive a double dose of instant karma

Viofo A229. Comes with a rear cam too. I'm very happy with it after two Garmin Minis crapped out on me.

I have a Viofo A229, it's a few years old now but still works well enough. I recommend having a two channel system (front and rear cameras).

First Day of School, Almost Celebrated with a T-BONE

Viofo A229 plus, they also make a 229 pro. I have this exact same dash cam. Excellent video, front and rear cameras, WiFi connectivity with your phone. My original Viofo was the A119 v3, I put it in my Wife’s car. Eventually I will upgrade the A119 to the A229 plus.
