I cringed watching most of those!

Holy ****. That @1:05 mark. This is why smart cars should not be driven. Or someone should wear a seatbelt.

What's wrong with this pic besides the graffiti... ?

This bitch can't drive on her side of the road...

That looks like a fun road for the Z!

^^Bracken county KY. KY-22. You can almost call it a mini dragon. Almost 50 miles of curvy goodness. I was starting to get dizzy towards the end from all the curves. Lots of blind corners, blind hill crests, some elevation change but not significant rises/falls. I'd say I was probably driving at 50%. Need to always have margin just in case. Screw up and it's a long way down :)

Do you have any night-time video? Curious of the quality at night.


Thanks for the link. I'd love to get something like this for my daily drive, but also for those fun runs up through the twistys.




Also, is it just that y'all are editing out stuff, or are you really that calm? I'm afraid to get one and share it, because all that you'd here is me yelling and cussing at these idiots cutting me off, etc. :icon17:

That and there may be self incriminating video that I must delete... :ugh:

The quality isn't amazing, but it's decent. If you fast-forward to about 3:30, you can see me getting on the interstate. I slowed down to yield to the guy coming in from the right, but I guess he had no idea what was going on.

I usually try and hold in my rage. If I do ever say anything, I usually have the windows down, so it gets muffled a little bit.

:icon17: I heard you that time!


Thanks for the video - the quality seems to be pretty good (compared to the night-time video the OP showed, which was very noisy/grainy).

I may pick one of these up soon. :tup:

Also, is it easy to hide the wires? I really don't want to have wires hanging down, dangling everywhere.

I leave the wires hanging down on mine, but only because I also use the camera in my daily. The cord is pretty long, so you might be able to run it along the windshield and down to the power thing below the dash, but I don't know for sure.

For the price that seems like pretty good quality. Gonna look into that. I always wanted something, but just couldn't justify the price.

Gonna check it out. Not a big fan of things suctioned to the windshield, and I already have an ipod in the 12v in front, but that price is still good...

Yea, the G1W is definitely the best "cheap" dash cam. Don't forget to pick up a memory card, too!

I just saw you're from Iowa. Where abouts are you from?

Also, keep in mind that the G1W doesn't handle cold temperatures all that well. I had one stop working on me after leaving it outside in my daily driver overnight last winter. Luckily, it comes with a 1 year warranty, so I contacted them via the provided email, and they sent me a new one.

Had someone almost hit me when they switched lanes without looking yesterday (fast forward about 25 seconds). And then they proceeded to to go 10 under the speed limit . . . (there was nobody in front of him)

Hrm, then I bet that means it won't handle high temperatures well either.

Granted most of the time I am parked in my garage at home or garage at work, but every now and again it sits out in a parking lot when shopping, etc.

I guess I could just take it off of the dash and hide it (probably should anyways) to save it.
