"DH and I are seriously considering getting front and back dash cams. Getting really tired of boneheaded drivers and would like proof of their boneheadedness should I ever need it."
What are you waiting for? By the time you need it, it's too late.
Ed: Just now seeing this.
We're waiting on extra money to buy them. They're not a priority for us and we have other things we're focusing on financially at the moment. Tuition for DS' school next year being #1. If we get money that isn't earmarked for something else and we find a good deal, we will get some. We're hoping to find a good deal on a package set (front and back cams) so we can also get some for my dad and uncle for their vehicles. If extra money doesn't happen, we will get them when they reach the top of the priority list.
My dash cam is a Canon digital camera with video that became obsolete once I got a smart phone that I always carry.
I found a way to attach it to the dash board, and bought a few extra batteries.
Do you have an old digital camera with movie mode that is sitting in a drawer?
