Does a Dash Cam Record Inside the Car?
1 Answers
A dash cam does not record inside the car. Generally, a dash cam is only responsible for recording the road conditions in front of the vehicle. Currently, dash cams are divided into single-lens and dual-lens (front and rear) recording types, but neither single-lens nor dual-lens dash cams can see or record the interior of the car. Single-Lens Dash Cam: A single-lens dash cam only records the road conditions in front of the vehicle through the camera on the dash cam itself. This type of dash cam has fewer components, is easy to install, and is relatively affordable and practical. Dual-Lens (Front and Rear) Dash Cam: A dual-lens dash cam adds a rear camera to the single-lens setup, enabling front and rear recording. However, the rear camera is not very useful. This type of dash cam is more expensive, has more components, is complex to install, and has a higher failure rate. Moreover, if using a dual-lens dash cam that can function as a streaming rearview mirror, the rear camera's significant distortion can mislead the driver, leading to misjudgment of distances and posing certain safety hazards.
