A video recorder is a useful device that records what is happening on the road from the car. The use of this device has its own characteristics, knowing which, you can protect yourself and your car in an emergency.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a suitable place to install the DVR. It is important that he does not block your view. It is best to install it in such a way that the device is invisible from the outside. This will help avoid attempts by intruders to steal it, as well as save you from disputes with traffic police, who often ask you to turn off the device for recording. The best places to mount the car DVR are in the rearview mirror, the center of the windshield and the center light bulb. It is better to attach the camera to adhesive tape. In this case, it will last longer in the cabin and will not change its position during sharp maneuvers of the car.
Step 2
Make sure the DVR has the correct view. He must see everything that happens on the road in front of the car. Better to use a device with a wide angle of view so that more than just the hood gets into the lens. A 180-degree view is ideal. In this case, the camera will also record, for example, a traffic police officer who approaches the car from the side. It is also important that the area of the ditch and road signs fall into the lens so that in the event of an accident you have as much evidence in your favor as possible.
Step 3
Use the basic capabilities of the DVR to survey events that in one way or another affect your rights. A device with a G-sensor function must be used. In this case, recording will start immediately after the start of the journey and automatically stop in case of a sudden stop or accident. Immediately after any incident occurs, copy the recording from the DVR to your computer and external storage medium. Provide one copy of the event record to the vehicle inspector and to the court, leaving one of the copies with you. This will guarantee its safety in case of loss or refusal by one of the participants in the process to consider it.
