Will the Dash Cam Record When the Car Is Not Moving?

Under normal circumstances, a dash cam will not record when the car is not powered on.

Dash cams with parking monitoring can continue recording even when the car is turned off. How Dash Cams Work: The working principle is that when the car body is subjected to a collision or detects movement in front of the car, the dash cam will automatically wake up and activate the monitoring function. However, this type of dash cam consumes power from the car battery. If left on for an extended period, the car may not start due to battery drain.
