Thinkware dash cam contest at Best buyThinkware dash cams make driving safer for everyone. For most of us, driving is the riskiest thing we do every day. There are few things we can do to protect our loved ones who must take to the roads, for short or long drives, commuting, or even just shopping. Properly maintained vehicles is a basic necessity. Thinkware dash cams provide “next level” protection. Enter this contest and you might win either a Thinkware Q1000 or Thinkware X800 dash cam.

Should all cars come standard with a Thinkware dash cam

Seatbelts were legislated in Canada all the way back in the 1970s. Wearing a seatbelt is so commonplace, many of us can’t imagine driving without using one. Similarly, back up cameras are found in most vehicles now and not having one seems, well, just wrong. Both seatbelts and backup cameras met with resistance upon their introduction. Many people just didn’t want to put on a seatbelt. Similarly, some people felt that a back up camera was simply a crutch, ensuring that drivers didn’t learn proper technique when backing up. Yet here we are, in a better place with both technologies in use for the betterment of drivers everywhere. Driving is safer with seatbelt and backup camera tech.

I contend that dash cams are another tech that drivers and cars are safer with rather than without. And Thinkware dash cams come with a host of features to protect drivers and car owners. Once you have one, you don’t want to be without one again.

Thinkware dash cams do much more than just record the road ahead

In the movie “Next,” Nic Cage is able to protect people in danger with his gift to see a couple minutes into the future. A Thinkware dash cam is kind of doing that by capturing where your car will be in the near future. When things go wrong on the road, having that footage can make a huge difference in your life. It shows how other people reacted to a novel situation. Our memories are fallible; in moments of excitement our brains can mix up timelines, and even “remember” incorrectly. Dash cam evidence presented to the police or even to a judge (if a dispute gets that far) is indisputable.

There is a lot of information coming from a Thinkware dash cam and you can track it all in the app. This includes remote viewing of the cameras, GPS/speed detection, crash detection, impact detection while parked, and more. Imagine if your spouse is commuting to work … you can follow their progress and know if they get stopped for some reason. I was recently at a concert and my truck was broken into … I wish I had a dash cam to alert me!

Are you ready to install a Thinkware dash cam in your vehicle? Enter now and you might win one of these two premium models. Both of these models of dash cam were reviewed on the blog so check out the Q1000 review and the X800 review then return here and enter.

  1. I don’t own a dashcam, but considering the idiotic way people are driving around nowadays, it seems like a necessary gadget to use in a car.

  4. I don’t have a dash cam and would love to have one for any accidents in the front of my car. I wonder if I can install it at the back in case someone hits me from behind.

  5. I don’t have a dash cam but would love to have one to retrieve any clips necessary for security or theft incidents.

  11. I don’t have a dash camera but it would be great for catching the odd thing that happens on the road or in an accident.

  13. I don’t have a dashcam in my vehicle, but I would think the crash detection and impact detection while parked would be very useful.

  16. We don’t have one yet, but I think it would be a nice thing to have. Something that has a lot of memory would be good.

  18. I don’t have one, but want one for the continuous recording to catch all the really dumb things I see on the roads.

  23. I don’t have a dash cam but my husband recently mentioned it would be a good idea to have one as a safety feature.

  26. I don’t currently have a dash cam. They are very useful for recording accidents and other incidents of interest.

  28. I don’t currently have a dash cam. Having a large storage capacity would be beneficial to allow it to record more information.

    • I got a dashcam, but its a peice of junk from Ali express, its got a blue glowing panel which doesn’t turn off. It would be more likely to record yourself getting in an accident at night …blinded by the bright blue display!. Other than the blinding light (I put tape over mine), they are useful for recording accidents involving myself…or being a witness for others. Some insurance companies even give a rebate on insurance for using a dashcam. Some dash cams even record while the car is parked for video surveillance in case your car is vandalized. I am passionate about dash cams, I even got one for my dog.

  30. I have one but it is not the best. It is important to have one during an accident. We unfortunately got into an accident as the car in front of us backed up and we ended up taking the fault since we were the car behind.

  34. No, I currently do not own one but the always recording feature would be of great use as you can never anticipate when an accident will happen

  37. Not at this time. The ability to replay video is critical today in case of any accidents or other vehicle related events.

  42. We do not have dash cams in our vehicles. I think that one that sends us notifications for speed traps, changes in speed limit, and full Advanced Driver Assistance features, like collision detection and 360 degree departure and collision warnings would be amazing important features for all drivers.

  44. No I don’t have a dash cam, but would love to have one that records when driving in case there’s an accident….both for the police/insurance and yourself.

  46. I do not have a dash cam, but I like the “always recording” features for when your car is not in motion.

  47. My dash cam helped me prove that I was not at fault in an accident. I wish I had an app to see the videos. I tell everyone to get a dashcam.

  48. I don’t have a dash cam, but wifi and a good app are great features so you can easily view and share videos when something hilarious happens.
