Garmin dash cams are reliable and easy to use. You likely know how useful they are. Dash cams have gone from a “nice-to-have” to a “must-have” addition to your vehicle. Car owners, truck owners—even motorcycle owners—realize the value of capturing the many unexpected events that happen on the road on digital video. Garmin has a wide selection of dash cams, like the Garmin 47, 57, 67W, and mini all to be given away in this contest. Read on to learn two of my favourite features and for a chance to win one of these Garmin dash cams.

Garmin dash cams provide clear and detailed recordings

Drivers want a dash cam that reliably captures high-quality video and high-definition still recordings. There’s a lot of factors that can affect the quality of the footage: fast moving cars, varying light and weather conditions can make capturing good videos and images even more difficult. There is a lot of technology built into Garmin dash cams to ensure quality images are captured and stored, and can easily be shared afterwards.

When looking for a dash cam, look for ones with the right resolution that can give you quality footages. With the right resolution, dash cams can give you a clear and detailed picture of the road that captures important details, such as plate numbers. Garmin dash cams have the standard 1440p HD and 1080p HD resolutions that, combined with its Clarity HDR optics feature, ensure you get clear and detailed footages day and night.

Save videos instantly with Garmin online storage vault

The videos and still photos your dash cam takes help provide a clear picture of incidents that happen on the road, so having a place online to save all of them just makes sense. Most people want a dash cam so they can show recordings of road incidents as proof, whether for insurance or police purposes, and your dash cam should make them readily available for you when you need them.

With Garmin dash cams you can quickly and easily upload, manage, and share videos online using its online storage vault. When your dash cam detects an incident or if you choose to save a video, it will automatically upload and store your files to the online storage vault for 24 hours. If you want to store your videos for a longer period of time, each Garmin dash cam comes with its own subscription plan.

Through the online storage vault, you can access your videos using your Garmin app, where you can view, trim, and export your videos to save on your phone. What I also like about this feature is that you can easily share your video with anyone simply by providing them a link to that video.

Whatever your plan is, drive safely and take a reliable dash cam with you: you never know what video footage you might capture. If you don’t have one yet, enter this contest.

  1. My favourite feature is the automatic upload and storage of your files. It will be very helpful with insurance claims.

  2. I like how it has high resolution and Clarity HD to capture clear footage of any incident in both day and night

  3. I would love to win this to place in my sons car. He is learning to drive and it will give me peace of mind as I can upload the video.

  4. I think they are great for capturing traffic especially if you are in an accident, they can capture other cars and help so much when traffic is so hectic on the roads now adays.

  5. Garmin dash cams provide clear and detailed recordings – 1440 and 1080p this is amazing resolution for playback of dashcam footage

  6. I was so happy to find a Garmin cam contest! The 24 hour storage vault is handy and HD quality resolution as well as Clarity HDR Optics Feature for day and night is amazing!

  7. I love that this is something that is so easy to use!!!
    Would definitely make my driving experience better!! Haven’t we all wanted “eyes in the back of our head” ?

  8. The online vault makes reviewing and sharing incident footage easy.
    I especially love that the garmin mini does not have an LCD screen, making it less distracting while driving, and more discreet.

  9. I love the fact that it would make me feel safer out there driving by myself and with my family. Peace of mind means a lot in this day and age. Thanks for the opportunity!!!

  10. I live in rural Manitoba where deer come up onto the road. It is my biggest fear that one day I’ll hit a deer and not be able to prove it to my insurance. I’m $0 deductible wildlife, $500 deductible if something happens that I can’t prove was wildlife. A dash cam would provide that proof.

  11. I’d like the fact of having a clear recorded picture. I find more and more people are careless and when they get into an accident they try to avoid fault.

  12. I like the fact that I can transfer the video easily and access through the garmin app. This would make life simpler and easy to send to the appropriate people if need be for proof.

  13. Having videos in one easy to find place would be helpful for providing proof if someone broke into my car or did anything else creepy near my vehicle. This would provide peace of mind.

  14. Instantly saving videos in one easy to find place would be helpful for providing proof if an accident or break in happened.

  15. The fact the Garmin dash cam automatically records a video and stores it if it detects a accident is extremely important. I can breath a lot easier knowing if I were involved in a incident being flustered I tend to forget to note everything needed for the police or my insurance company! Thankful for the Garmin dash cam has it for me.

  16. The most impressive feature of these Dashcams is the online storage vault. If you witness a road incident or are involved in one you have the footage that you can share. Or maybe you come across a beautiful sunset….you know have a still shot of it. The possibilities are endless.

  17. One of the most important features of the dash cam would be a clear and crisp image. I am constantly worried about my car being damaged and it would be nice to make sure that if it is, I would know exactly how.

  18. One feature of Garmin dash cams that is most important to you is the ability to connect by wifi to my phone and how it will benefit my driving experience in that I don’t have to run out to my car when the car alarm goes off. I’d be able to see what’s going on from my phone.

  19. The part I like best is that I can record any time I’m in my vehicle because I have children and care about their safety so much, and if I’m ever in an accident, this will help that experience as well. Thank you for this chance.

  20. The most important feature for me is the automatic upload and storage. It will benefit my driving experience because I travel the highway daily and will be able to keep records of my experiences.

  21. Bien sur pour la sécurité mais aussi beaucoup pour les paysages, les routes que j’aurai emprunté.
    J’aime les revoir en vidéo!
    Merci

  22. Garmin dash cam can quickly and easily upload, manage, and share videos online using its online storage vault. Having this, I’ll always feel safe and protected from frauds claims from happening.

  23. love the fact that I’ll feel less worried about my boys driving , as I can see where they’ve been and can check their driving abilities better xx

  24. I like that it captures high-quality video.
    Storing the video online would have come in handy after someone backed into me in the parking lot!
