Very interesting, do you have pictures of it installed? I would like to know if it can be "hidden" so ppl won't know theres a camera inside.

Also, will you offer installation with it if local?

It fits just like an ezpass would. and installation is super simple. like i said its an end user product meaning its plug and play. stick the sd card in mount it where you want to. start your car. walah.

Ever since being hit by a Congressional staffers who ran a light, I run a dash cam (it was a hit and run with a later apprehension).

You catch some zany things. You also catch some worthwhile things. I caught a bus rear ending a car two weeks ago.

I faired surprising well, but that talk about odd periodic back pain for years to come is not just lawyers trying to get you to sue.

I know this seems a bit off topic but I'm sure in the very least the thought has surfaced to some of you. You have this device and it's recording while you're being pulled over by a cop for "X". What do you do?

If you get pulled over ensure you inform the cop of your recording device to prevent you from being accused of secretly recording them. I know they should always be professional and not have anything to hide but we all know how that story goes. If he/she tells you to turn it off:

If the cop says “Please stop recording me. It’s against the law.”
For example, if an insecure cop tries to tell you that you’re violating his civil liberties, you might respond by saying “Officer, with all due respect, state law only requires permission from one party in a conversation. I don’t need your permission to record so long as I’m not interfering with your work or if there is no reasonable expectation of privacy (pulled over on a public road or parking lot is NOT reasonable expectation of privacy.)”

If you live in one of the 12 all party record states, you might say something like “Officer, I’m familiar with the law, but the courts have ruled that it doesn’t apply to recording on-duty police.”

For further clarification: Twelve states—California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington—require the consent of all parties for you to record a conversation.

However, all but 2 of these states—Massachusetts and Illinois—have an “expectation of privacy provision” to their all-party laws that courts have ruled does not apply to on-duty police (or anyone in public). In other words, it’s technically legal in those 48 states to openly record on-duty police.

Remember kids, knowledge is power and bacon is always best fried! :tup:

It depends on State law and whether or not your State is a single party consent state. In single party consent state, law enforcement has much greater limitations on stoping you from filming or recording (of course, in no event can you interfere with their lawfully discharging their duties). If ever asked to stop recording, always as if you are legally compelled by state law.

I stated the laws in what I wrote. I don't get your point. Basically if you don't live in Massachusetts or Illinois you can record the event of you being pulled over and subsequent conversation, issuance of ticket, warning, etc. If you don't live in the aforementioned states and they ask you to stop recording you can assert your RIGHT and respectfully decline and state the appropriate statute.

Back on topic, this item looks to be promising, I really like the auto on in case of sudden collision or jarring from theft. Nice job!

Yes, well, I don't read that closely. Just pound out a reply and feel good about myself.

That feels better.

See what I mean?

I uses a dash cam because there is so many driver out there that is bad at driving! I want to make sure if someone cut me off and hit me I have a recording that I can use to prove the accident. I'm current using 1080P cam with motion and shock sensor I got from Asia for $60 bucks that serve me well.

But does not have GPS like the one OP listed, The only feature I wish these thing have is a 360 degree cam if someone vandalize the card on the side that does not trip the shock and motion sensor (spray paint, key the door...).

Here is a review I found online Itronics ITB-100HD | Dash Cam Talk looks petty high end!

interesting, how badly will it kill your battery if you left it running while the car is parked and off? or how long could you run it before the battery is dead?
