In recent years, with the frequent occurrence of “hit-and-run” incidents, many car owners choose to install dash cameras in their vehicles. In fact, dash cameras not only prevent those who attempt to stage such incidents from taking advantage, but also provide strong video evidence when accidents happen and the police determine liability. Therefore, it is really necessary to install dash cameras.
There are various types of dash cams on the market, but today we will compare two of them: 1. Single-lens dash cams that can only record the front view. 2. Dual-lens dash cams that can separately record both the front and rear views.
Which dashcam is better? I believe everyone will undoubtedly choose the latter. Yes, the dual-lens dashcam does have the advantage of having more lenses. But is it important to record the situation behind the vehicle?
Although the recording of the rear situation is not as frequent as that of the front application scenarios, it is not without its uses. Many dual-recording dash cams often highlight their ability to function as a simple rear-view mirror as a selling point. When in operation, they usually default to displaying the real-time image from the rear camera. As the observation is made through the rear camera, the presented view has a wider field of vision, fewer blind spots, and thus provides greater assurance for driving safety.
