If you think drivers are bad in a car, wait until you walk or bike where you are completely invisible and screw ups that cause fender benders kill you. Literally no one stops for crosswalks, at limit lines, and if you think only bikes run stop signs, I got some stories. My bike camera is loving R rated.

My entire bike commute is filled with traffic violations. I’d wager that almost every car I encounter is violating at least one law. Most common is stop sign rolling, no turn signals, and of course using their cell phone while driving. The trifecta is pretty common too.

I don't know what it is, but people sucking at driving because they're on the phone seems worse than ever to me recently. I can't imagine the percent of drivers with smart phones has increased at all the past few years, so I have no explanation for why it's so much worse. Boomers learning how to use instagram?

My state just entered the 21st century and made it illegal to hold your phone while driving. Things seem to be a little better now. I haven't seen anyone FaceTiming with their phone in their hand in at least a year.

Every single loving day on my commute on the west side of Denver. I have to honk at people staring into their lap instead of watching the light when it turns green. Every Single loving Day "texting" is the only thing illegal here, you can talk and apparently read facebook and twitter instead of watching the road.

LloydDobler posted:Every single loving day on my commute on the west side of Denver. I have to honk at people staring into their lap instead of watching the light when it turns green. I'm guilty of being that guy that floors it once he realizes the light is green.... after a honk or two.  Austin's laws prohibit operating a mobile device while driving or while on a bicycle, but there's an exception carved out in the law for when you're stopped at a red light. 99% of the time my dumbass is trying to change what I'm listening to, and misjudged how long the light would be red.  I have bluetooth in my car as well (for both music and phone calls), but the seal on the sunroof is  (it's quieter when it's open), plus the door seals are shot, so if I'm moving above around 35 or so, people can barely hear me. Between that and the motor being flaky, I'm giving serious thought to just caulking the sunroof shut to cut down on noise; it didn't work at all when I got the car anyway. I have the mic mounted next to the factory OnStar mic, which is about as ideal of a position as it can get (bottom center of the rearview mirror, angled toward the driver's seat).If I'm using my phone in public, I almost always have actual headphones (not lovely earbuds) that also have a mic in them on me. I got them mainly for work, but they sound shockingly decent for wireless headphones in their price range, and have loving amazing battery life. I've had them 3 weeks, use them a few hours a day when I'm working, have never charged them, and when I turned them on last night, my phone said they still had 80% left.

I have the same headphones and they are pretty great for the price, battery lasts forever. In other news, I was rear-ended on the highway this morning, and the idiot swerved through two lanes of traffic, almost rolled, and took off at high speed. So now I'm in the market for a dashcam would like both front and rear cameras, any recommendations?

I like Street Guardian's line of products if you're in the U.S., their customer support is great. https://streetguardian.cam/ I have a SGGCX2PRO with SGR323CAM (rear) that I'm going to install soon, but I've been very sick. I already have the SG9663DCPRO and it works well for me. They need easier model names, though. Otherwise the Viofo line of cameras have been well rated on Dashcamtalk.

In case anyone gives a gently caress, an example still: and a short example video (when it finishes uploading and processing) from the Aukey DR02 I finally got around to installing in my Wrangler. Might have the exposure up too high. Will definitely need to crank it down from 4K to actually record longer trips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu4_A6yTD3w

I've been looking at it since it was at $200, but its come down recently. I just want full license plate resolution, I don't know if many do that.

If you want a higher resolution and just a forward camera (2560*1600) I think the current favorite is the Viofo A119V3. Looks like it's only $120. I'm not sure if there's a favorite vendor.

Anybody here turned off their g-sensor and regretted it? I got a B1W a few months ago, and it works fine, but the sensor is extremely sensitive; closing the door when I get in is enough to set it off. It's hard for me to imagine a situation where I'm in a wreck, the dashcam and I both survive, and I don't immediately go pull the footage off it manually. I assume the sensor is mostly meant for parking mode, right? I just have mine plugged into the cigarette lighter at the moment. Lester Shy fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Aug 14, 2019 |

Edit 2: actually factoring in a SD card that Guardian also looks good. I'll need to do some digging on how to route power for both models and what it takes to install a rear camera. Edit 3: oh my god why is there so much wiring involved. Why don't these drat things have battery backup?! Who the gently caress wants to pop trim panels and put in fuse taps?

There's other connectors from various companies - mirrortap and invisiwire. They plug into the mirror harness if you have a powered rearview mirror.

That makes a lot of sense re: batteries. I'm okay with drive only activation and no parking mode so juice via the cigarette port is fine. I was just idly speculating what it'd take to rig things up so the car battery doesn't get run down in parking mode. Maybe I'm seriously misunderstanding how all this works. I clearly need to do more research.
