but if you guys think about it, the same thing would have happened if another car turned left at the intersection into that lane. the front car would still have caused an accident since he didn't spot check.

If anyone's interested..here's an unboxing video on Abee V30 1080p dash cam.

No offence, but a friendly remind:
NEW Effective January 1, 2010
A driver must not operate a motor vehicle with a television screen unless it is securely fixed to the vehicle so it does not obstruct the driver’s view and the image displayed is not visible to the driver, or it displays information related to the safe operation of the vehicle.

My friend got pull over by the cop because he touch the screen dash camera when he was driving. $109 ticket. Make sure install the proper place, and do not obstruct your driving view. But dash cameras with screens are all very big not like finevu or blackvue

What's the current availability of the Blackvue DR400G-HD?

Any / Best place to get it locally?

Did your friend say which part of the MVA he got the ticket for? It could be disputable!

i know i'm an ass for thinking this, but this pic came to mind when i saw that

Thanks for the heads up.
so I assume it's the same with GPS unit?

Thanks! Abee V30 can be operated with the screen off though.

Yeah, for sure he is going to dispute because he took the sd card off before the cop took it away.

Joined the club, thanks yingyu!

^Sick, man. Very clear. Keep your car stock:ilied:

Bit the bullet and got myself a cheap small one.

$109 ticket? the cop must have seen him playing with it while driving, as in most of his attention was on the device instead of the road.

I've got a window mount for my cell, i've passed many cops before and never gotten any looks or tickets for it. GLPs have it bad. Not even a Bluetooth Handsfree is permitted.

^I don't know he play it or not. He said he didn't. Let's see how's the dispute result.

here is a shitty driver cross red. Skip to 1:30

Just spotted the blackvue selling at a new auto store "ace auto" at crystal mall. Don't know how much, but these things have really come down in price on eBay! No groupbuy and it's $180 USD now. On a side note, I bought the imitation version for my dad called the "blackview" and it's pretty decent at less than 1/3 the price. It's funny that the cheaper version comes with a LCD display screen.

I actually prefer not having an LCD screen.

yeah, me too, but it's like you're getting more for your money! Well, minus the picture quality... imitation one is "decent" but can't compare it to blackvue

I might bite the bullet and go with the Blackvue now that the prices have dropped. I was hoping something similar would come out, but it looks like nothing beats the night time recording quality of the Blackview **tight, blue, shiny dress** If I had a Blackview back then, you know I'd upload it on RS.

I still hear of people having problems with the Blackvue. I guess it's hit and miss like everything else out there. I guess I'll request older firmware and see how it goes.

damn that shits so stock it makes mine look modified :ahwow:

I've been having no issues on the latest firmware. Also been using a class 10 card.

Aside from the mic getting destroyed by the cabin noise, the video quality is superb. I highly recommend it!

Again, people. No discussions of group buys or the like in this thread. Points from here on out.

What kind of camera is that? The picture's very clear, and I'm thinking about picking one up myself pretty soon

looks like mine, BlackVue DR400G-HD

What's the cheapest price for the DR400 now a days? Around $170?

Or have anyone seen it for lower?
