@djkevdogg@Salanth@werehatrack bit of warning to buy a durable card to record on; extended powered-on periods cause the GoPro to get very warm; while a heat sink will protect you, the internal microSD card may wear out faster.
If not for my dashcam I wouldn’t have footage of some random person attempting to urinate on my car, completely missing, then vomiting all over himself when he got a whiff of the smell.
I asked for a dual one for Christmas with the hardwire kit. Nice video quality. I have yet to have it save my ass, or allow me to be the hero to someone else that got hit, but it does provide peace of mind.
I find myself mostly hitting the “save” button after passing a cute dog out the car window to show the better half.
If you have a car get a dashcam! I worked in insurance claims for years and people will lie or confidently forget they didn’t stop at stop sign and they have never went on a red light. Dash cams will save you so much money and if you were in the wrong you can misplace your SD card. Can also get you out of tickets on occasion. If the cop says you missed a stop sign or were speeding.
No. I do have a trunk cam though.
Have, yes. Have installed and working, not so much, at least not at the moment. I need to correct that.
No. Big brother is watching me too much already.
@hchavers It’s just Elon Musk that watches me, but that’s scary enough.
@hchavers Yep, I so agree!
Need a car to even consider this.
@Salanth or a helmet while just walking around.
@djkevdogg @Salanth GoPro works better as a body cam.

Yes, from Meh.
Someday it might get installed.
@phendrick ha #metoo
I have a couple of them. Sitting in boxes. Might install them at some point.

@brennyn Sounds like a video that would have made it to Tickey Tack. Got a link for us?

@Sneakertree, precisely the reason I finally got mine last year!
