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!

  1. We don’t have one (yet) but I think that it’s important to record all of the strange ways that damage can occur to your vehicle.

  2. This would be great to have as I am always on the road and its great to assist with investigations if I have dash cam footage.

  3. I do not have a dash cam in my vehicle. The dash cam is important because it records evidence of an accident and you could use it in court if necessary.

  4. I do not have a dash cam right now. I think they are great for accountability when in a crash, GPS/speed detection, crash detection, and impact detection while parked. Give one peace of mind for your vehicle.

  5. i do not have one in my vehicle. it would be great for any incidents that might happen that require viewing footage for support as proof.

  6. No I don’t have one in my vehicle. The recording feature definately makes them an important tool, some nice solid evidence.

  7. I don’t have a dash cam, but could certainly use one. Had a fender bender a year ago when someone turned left into my path – a dash cam would have come in handy to show the police the other driver was at fault.

  8. I don’t have one but I’m in the market to buy a dash cam since they are a good piece of mind if you have an accident or a break-in.

  9. I don’t have a dash cam right now. I think they are great for accountability when in a crash, GPS/speed detection, crash detection, and impact detection while parked. This is a great tool to have in your vehicle.

  10. I don’t have one but would love one. Features I think are important are the 156° wide viewing angle which helps capture the whole picture clearly and the Super Night Vision.

  11. I don’t currently have one but have driven some cars that do. I feel like in an accident it would be very helpful to capture details and information.

  12. Hi. I don’t have a dash cam, but have been considering one for my Ford. It would give me peace of mind knowing there would be footage available should there ever be the need. Plus, who doesn’t love quality tech?
    Thanks …
    Cheers

  13. I do not currently have a dashcam, The wide angle shot of both the front and back is an a valuable feature to have in case of an accident.

  14. I don’t have a dash cam in my vehicle this is why i really want one. The features i think make them an important tool for drivers and car owners is the super night vision for low-light conditions and also the parking surveillance mode for safety of your vehicule records events triggered by impact or motion detection is what every one should have !

  15. No, I don’t have a dash cam. But knowing that this dash cam can tell me if there’s a car accident with my beloved ones or whether my car is being broken into, I’d love to receive one for my Christmas!

  16. Have a dash cam but would love one of higher quality. It has made me so much more reassured when incidents occur.

  17. I don’t have a dash cam but I think being able to record it comes in handy for any road incidents. Clarity of image is important since you may need it for witnessing etc.
