Can Dashcam Footage Be Used in Court?

If you are involved in an accident and the other driver didn’t have a dashcam on their car, the footage from your dashcam could help you in your claim. You can use the footage to prove that the other driver was at fault.

Dashcam footage can provide evidence of the other driver’s fault

In order to file a personal injury claim in court, you need to prove that the other driver was at fault for the crash. Dash cam footage can be the most important evidence to support your claim. It can prove that the other driver was at fault if you can demonstrate that the other driver violated the law and was not following the rules.

Dashcam footage can reduce a claim amount

Dashcam footage can help reduce a claim amount in court if the footage shows evidence of fault by another driver. For example, if another driver makes a left-hand turn illegally while your car was in motion, the dashcam footage will be important evidence that the other driver was at fault for the accident.

Dashcam footage may not be admissible if it includes audio

In some cases, dashcam footage may not be admissible in court if it contains audio. Luckily, there are a number of ways to avoid having dashcam audio excluded from evidence. First, make sure that the dashcam is on mute when not in use. This way, the dashcam will not record audio when it is not in use. Second, make sure that you inform everyone else in your vehicle about the dashcam’s existence. This way, they won’t record the audio if they don’t consent to it.

Finally, the dash cam footage itself should not be altered. If the audio is distorted or cut, it may not be admissible as evidence in court. If the audio is not removed, it may also violate the right to privacy. In most cases, though, dash cam audio footage is admissible in civil cases.

The pros and cons of parking monitoring dash cameras

Nowadays, there are more and more functions of dashboard cameras. Most of Banuo dashboard cameras have parking monitoring functions, which can better protect the interests of car owners and realize 24-hour monitoring of vehicles. Our dashboard cameras are equipped with G-force sensors to detect the situation around the vehicle, even when there is no one in the vehicle, once a collision is detected, automatic recording is turned on. In summary, the parking monitoring function has the following advantages and disadvantages:

1.Pros

The parking monitoring of the dash camera can monitor the vehicle 24 hours a day while the car is parked to prevent scratches and theft. Even if it has been scratched or stolen, video evidence can be provided. Banuo dashboard cameras can generally be connected to a mobile phone to realize remote control and real-time monitoring of the car. Once a problem occurs, the owner will be reminded as soon as possible.

2.Cons

Due to parking monitors 24-hour power consumption, it needs to be connected to the car’s constant power, which will consume battery power to a certain extent. If the car is parked for a long time, the power of the battery will be gradually exhausted resulting in the failure of starting the car.

Of course, car owners don’t have to veto the necessity of parking monitoring function because of the power loss caused by it. Scientific use of the parking monitoring function will not exhaust the power supply of the car. If the owner does not drive for more than 5 days, the power cord of the dash camera needs to be unplugged. At the same time, the dash camera with screen consumes more power. If you pay more attention to the parking monitoring function, you can choose the dash camera without screen.

Dash cams record on a “loop”

The “loop” recording function on Banuo dash cams allows them to record continuously even if the SD card is full or low. This allows you to easily download the files without having to worry about the file size. This mode is useful for maximizing the limited storage capacity of an SD card.

Recording time on Banuo dash cams varies, but all of them record for at least one  minute. Most models allow you to extend the time to three minutes. The longer recording time is useful for file management. In the case of 1080p HD dash cams, for example, they can record for up to four hours before looping. The recording time will also depend on the resolution of the dash cam. There are two main reasons for the recording loop: first, it makes long videos into shorter clips, making them easier to transfer and edit.

Loop recording saves your footage and keeps it available for future viewing. The downside to loop recording is that some of the videos are deleted. If you want to save a certain video, such as an accident video, you’ll need to remove the older files.
