  • Should you buy a dashcam?

    Think of it as a form of insurance. Most of us pay car insurance premiums for years without ever filing a claim. Yet, we would feel somewhat naked without the peace of mind auto insurance provides. Likewise, a dashcam is a novelty until you wish you had one to back up your story in an accident investigation, insurance fraud attempt, or early morning car burglary.
