Questions before you buy
What is the difference between an in-car camera and a dash cam?
A dash cam usually records through the windscreen, while in-car camera can also describe cabin-facing or multi-channel systems. Check the stated viewing direction before buying.
Can an in-car camera record while the vehicle is parked?
Only if the camera supports parking mode and receives power after the ignition is off. The required hardwire kit or external battery varies by model.
Is a cabin camera useful for ordinary drivers?
It can document passenger activity or side-window events, but most private drivers gain more useful exterior coverage from a rear camera.
Where should an in-car camera be mounted?
Mount it high enough to see the road without obstructing the driver's view, and keep it outside the swept area of airbags. Provincial rules and vehicle design should guide the final position.
