You can't explain that! Just kidding. Dash cams record video to a removable memory card inside the camera itself. Any time your car is on and the dash cam is plugged in, it is acting as your backup witness.

Note: Some dash cam models have the ability to keep recording even while the vehicle is parked! This is known as "parking mode".

These are particularly useful for fleet or commercial vehicles where typically the driver of the vehicle is not the owner of the vehicle.

Professional dash cams are commercial-grade models designed for business use (fleet vehicles, taxis/Uber/Lyft drivers, delivery trucks, etc) or other commercial, municipal or government purposes. These high-reliability units are also desirable to those individuals seeking the added peace of mind that comes from using a professional-level device in their own... Read more
