These cameras sit on your dashboard and record audio and video of what is happening on the road ahead, to the side and behind you. In addition to recording your beautiful singing voice, these devices are handy, as they can provide indisputable evidence of accidents and incidents on the roads. There are around three million of these in use in the UK, most of which are used by professional drivers. After all, it is certainly worth paying for one of these devices when your livelihood is at stake.
Need convincing? Here are a few reasons why self employed drivers should invest in a dash cam.
Evidence
The key benefit is that a dash cam is, essentially, an eyewitness in your car that allows you to prove that you are not at fault in the case of an accident or incident.

Choosing a Dash Cam
There are many different dash cams on the market to consider. Much like anything, you get what you pay for, so it is worth spending a little bit more on a commercial-grade model. This should use a capacitor instead of a battery for greater longevity and have a polarising filter so that reflection is not an issue. These features will provide you with an extra set of eyes on the road and could come to save you a huge amount of money if you are ever involved in an incident that is not your fault.
