Dash Cameras

[Smossy]

I don't have a recommendation but I do know someone who had a go pro and got rid of it as fast as he got it. I think he said the quality was crappy at best. But I have seen good videos recorded by them via YouTube so maybe he just didn't know what he was doing

I have one and think it has very good quality. This is not my video but if it can do this it can surely record your driving. This is our own Carbon River by the way. The Mighty Carbon River

Awesome video btw, Those are some serious extreme kayakers! Repelling down cliff-sides n what not. Thats really cool.
LOVE my gopro, Best piece of equipment I own, Hands down.

A couple of friends of mine went to the supercross and visited the gopro booth. If you give them your email address they sent you an offer to get $100 off a new gopro. If you arent going to the Seattle supercross but know someone who, have them put your email in for you. The only downside is that you only have a week to use it. $200 is a good price for a new gopro!

That code has been posted all over online, Its just part of they're new promo. And IF I had the money to purchase a new Gopro Id do it in a heart beat.

Go figure, I just had it up about an hour ago, now I cant find it.. I was gonna post the code for everyone. The second I find it again Ill share.    Not sure if It can be used multiple times or not though.

*Updated* Codes that I came across earlier, Not sure If they're still valid but if your looking to purchase a Gopro give them a try durring checkout.

Well as some know in Feb. a gal ran a red light and totaled my old truck.
I was lucky to have a sheriff Dep. in the lane next to me.

The gal admitted she did not look at light to city police. A week later her insurance co. Called and said she had the green.

Took a week or two to get police reports before her insurance finally paid up.

If I had not had the LE witness it could have been a mess.

Thus thinking about dash cam.

Glad everything worked out in your favor, as it should have. Unfortunet incident though. My car is a classic and i would be devistated as it would be nearly impossible to get everything fixed and replaced if my car was hit.

Is this the same one? What a huge price difference.
I looked into it a little Russia is unreal with the video cams.

AVI is typically not admissible in court, I'd look for something with propetary codec that is admissable as evidence. 
You need MPEG-4 

AVI is frame by frame and easly altered, so any lawyer would get it tossed.

Here is another reason to have one.

"A crowd forms around a woman splayed across the hood of a car stopped in the middle of the road. Several people drag her to the sidewalk where she doesn't move.

Sounds like a terrible accident, right?

In the case of the video above, not exactly. The woman is a fraud. She's faked the accident, probably in hopes of earning some sort of financial windfall from the real victim here, the driver of the car.

Luckily, the driver had a dashcam, which caught the entire sordid incident on a video that shows the car come to a stop moments before the jogging woman decided to throw herself atop the car's hood."

I just got a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition.  Just want to share that this one has a setting for video looping.  When the card is full, it will start over writing.  I have not tried it yet.
