What brand was it?? Do you have a link for it?
@scottykilmer do you have the brand or link for this product?
I think it’s a VIOFO A139PRO 2CH.
tahnk you!
@@Saddlegait45
That’s expensive!
Lol Scotty was kind enough to provide some advice for the reckless drivers 😂
I’ve always had the opinion that nobody is a good driver 100% of the time, but most people are bad drivers almost 100% of the time. 😂
@@Nman22222 : Wow, where do you live? You just described New York City to a tee.
We have all been there
😂
I’ve installed dual-dash cams in my car, parents’ car, sisters’ cars where you don’t see any wires dangling. I’ve also included the option to have it record when someone hits the car while the engine is off! I’m thinking of posting my dash cam install service and installing them for others.
What brand and model camera do you recommend?
What kind you have
@@johngranato2673 If you’re willing to spend the money, Black Vue cameras. If you’re looking for best-bang-for-your-buck, Viofo a129 dual front & rear dash cam. Don’t get the Pro or 4K versions. They still need to work out the kinks with those.
Interesting idea......I say go for it.
That can be your side hustle man 💰
I've had my dash camera save me from 2 tickets. One was me passing a car in a no passing zone. Once I showed footage of all the aggressive brake checks for no reason, officer agreed it was in my best interest to be ahead of them since showing down did no good as they would just slow down and continue to brake check.
As an added bonus the officer got their plate number and issued then a ticket for wreckless endangerment.
Video cameras make the best eyewitnesses. They tell the same story every time no matter how many times they have to tell it.
Define brake check. I brake to keep a safe braking distance. It's a term people keep forgetting about until they have to take a driver safety course.
@wadderfock if you're in front of me and no one or thing is in front of you and you slam on the brakes for no reason, that is a brake check.
I had mine for two years and ive seen nothing worth recording and haven't been pulled over. But when i didn't have it i've seen crazy car accidents, cars on fire and one fender bender.
Great news Scotty, ford recalled over 800,000
f 150 trucks because the electronic parking brake can activate while in motion. Built ford tough.
There isn't even 1 general motors vehicle that is reliable
News 2 days ago.
@@quickmessenger1591Asia fanboy myth.
Why did they switch to electronic?
@@fromthebackofmymindall Chads drive Lada.
Everyone should have a dash camera! Just get caught up in one swoop and swat scam and get stuck at fault and have your insurance premiums double. That dash cam would have more than paid for itself! Ask me how I know.
Heck just two weeks ago my dash cam saved me from a ticket. Cop was either mistaken who she clocked, or just straight up dishonest. My dash cam has GPS location and speed, and it proved I wasn't going 82 in a 70 like the cop accused me of!
I drive like a maniac and my dashcam only functions when the incident is not my fault.😎
Just remember if it's 1/4 inch below the rear view mirror line then it's a reason they can ticket you for.
I had no idea....thx!
Wait really ? Thanks for the heads up, I’m going to go check mine now haha
Some of these clip onto rear view mirror. People often lie after an accident, so they’re worth having.
@@garynoss818 if only there was a video explaining this....oh wait
depends on what state you live in
Mine even has gps and records my speed.
Like Scotty said, it can be good or bad.
Name of Product and Model ?
I've got a rove r2-4k with that feature. There is free PC software that you can play the video on, that will have a map showing exactly where you were as you watch the video.
@@sapphire163 Thanks for the information.
Mine does too, and it has already saved me from a ticket which would have been super speeder in Georgia. GPS saved the day! I have a red tiger F7NP.
Bad, if you were speeding and get into an accident.
The best one to buy is the one that clips over you mirror so you don't even think about it, I have 4 of the stick on the window kind like in this video but the one that clips over the mirror is by far the best one I have and it never falls of, I got lucky with mine because it was on sale from $100 to $30 on door crasher sale, has a built in cameras and a wired camera to put on the back window so it records both windows at the same time.
Link?
What type do you use/recommend?
What's the name of the dash cam you use ?
The only video I didn't see the paint shaking effect. Love your videos.
Yeah, cops sometimes mess up. Cop put on the report that I was texting while driving. My phone was in my purse.
Sometimes ??? Most the time .
@@todd3285 I was really angry when I got a copy of the police report with the box checked that stated I was texting while driving. I called the police department to demand that they fix it. They refused.
@@kathleen1685 I'm not surprised.
@@todd3285 I was broadsided by a teenage girl. In my opinion, I think they should not be allowed to drive until at least 18 yo.
owning a vehicle is a real endless money pit
it reaaaally really is
As someone with 6 of them I can concur.
Yup I own one and I want to buy another one. All the gasoline, repairs, tires and car washes, the insurance, the registration, blah blah blah it's so annoying I think I'ma just ride a mountain bike lol
Meh.. no one complains when you spend a shitload on coffee every week. Live your life
Does it film even if the car is not running? If so I will buy it but I need the link to that. Scotty Kilmer I was wondering if you have the link to that device?
Thanks for the recommendation scotty. What is the brand and model number please?
You may search VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam :) It evens allows you to rotate the interior cam to the driver window side.
I bought a dashcam that has one you have to install one of them in the rear so I’m gonna save up money (been months since I got it) and have a professional do it lol
It is not that difficult. "Professionals" break the plastic tabs off mouldings also, and wont tell you.
I drive Uber and use a Cobra SC 201. Love it.
Have been using for years and saved me in few accidents. It's cheap insurance on top of insurance. 👍😁
I need one!!! LINK! Love Scotty
VIOFO T130
Love the disclaimer at the end! Haha
A Wise Man with Very Wise Word's is Scotty.! 👍
"and stick 'em on the dash" ... (As he sticks it on the WINDSHIELD) 🤔
Hes been doing that after getting married 😂
The best advice ever not good for hooligan but if they are people what do silly things they shouldn’t not be on the road should always respects everyone and watch out for everyone not just think of yourself think of others
Works magnificently, regardless of which type of driver you are.
Vehicle data recorders the smaller cheaper equivalent of bright orange flight data recorders known as black boxes could also help or hinder drivers with insurance claims depending on the situation.
Scotty said "stick them on the dash" while he stuck the camera on the WINDSHIELD. LOL.
Also, sticking things on the windshield can get you a ticket because it obstructs the windshield.
Yes! Check your states laws about placement. Mine has to be behind the rear view mirror.
If thats the case I would have been pulled over long time ago because my company truck has a dash cam on the windshield
oh that's crap I've had a dash came on my windshield for many many years
I just got one with 4 cameras. Front, back, left & right. Unfortunately it's 107 degrees now where I live & maybe 130+ in the car. Wondering if that will kill my dash cam. Will be 97 in a month.
May I ask please what brand/model is it?
@@philly8462 It's a Rexing R4 4-Channel. It was on sale 2 weeks ago at Best Buy for $239.99 so I got 2. One for my wife's car. It's back to $299.99 again for now.
what brand pls?
@@tijaduno3417 Rexing R4. I just bought my 3rd one to put on my motorcycle.
Scotty is a treasure
Bro that last sentence, I was think about that yesterday 💀 I was thinking why not just scrap the cam if I'm in the wrong
That's a nice dashcam, been thinking of upgrading to that one at some point
Great job, Scotty!
I don't have a cigg lighter in my car. They took those and ashtrays away from us a looooooong time ago.
Civic 2024 hatchback sport has one
These are clutch
❤ LOVE YOUR INFO, SCOTTY
God bless you Scotty !
No link for the dashcam?
You may seach VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam.
Good info scotty! Thank you!!
What's the link or name of this CAMERA I need one Scotty ! Or someone give the name of this camera so I can check it out.
You may search VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam.
VIOFO T130 3CH😎
would be better to withhold footage, let the person perjure themselves, then let them suffer the consequences.
What is it called? BioFoam,.? I didn’t hear it right.
VIOFO T130 3CH
Love the pros and cons!
Will a dash cam (in cigarette lighter) drain your battery? Just installed one in my Sierra and was worried about it considering there is a parking mode that takes pictures periodically and turns on for motion.
It shouldn’t drain the battery.
I'm the maniac driver 😂 uh yes the SD card is bad, no record.
What about the cams that go on to the mirrors. Will it work on one of the new mirrors with the safety nonsense hook between the mirror and the windshield
My first purchase for my new Honda! Dash cam
Can it be wireless aswell? Is that connection only bc it’s charging ?
How do you show the camera footage to the police? I assume it does not have a screen. You connect it to a phone or?
Take the memory card and put in on your computer.
Should have immediate play back to show police.
Grandpa, please provide the link to this product.
VIOFO T130, please confirm
Get the viofo A139pro
Would something like that work in an older vehicle? The old school cigarette lighters weren’t actually 12 volts. I’ve been told that they’re closer to 9-10. So my phone or anything else charges crazy slow. Would it be enough to power the average dash cam? And if it would power it, how hard am I stressing my electrical system if I do decide to use one?
better not record you at your drag strip test road (scotty laugh) 🤣
He does and posts it on UA-cam.
What’s the brand of this one?
Vantrue Nexus 5 dashcam is better for I rather have a hardwired to have it on parking mode
Good advice for those crazy drivers lol
Smart Guy Thanks😊
It will work both ways
As someone who drives like a maniac I see this as an absolute loss
How do I fix the cigarette lighter? I recently used it to plug an air tire compressor and it stopped working. Ichanged the fuse and it still not working.
Nothing stopping someone from pulling their own SD card from their own camera... Just make sure no one is watching.
I wish they made cameras with near and far lenses independent for both front and back.
Scott I enjoy your info videos Great Job .much appreciated
The end kills me no proff for me lol
Scotty, what camera is that? I need that one! Did you say VIOFO? What model plz?
It's VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam.
I have dark tint on my back windows, will that camera be able to capture through it? Is their some other camera that anyone can recommend that I can install in my trunk? Or you know what I mean...
At the end good advice for the reckless drivers lmao 😂
Thanks 👍🏽
Spot on 😊
Need to know what is brand name on dash am thx
SNL needs to do a skit on this guy.
Lol😂🤪
Does it film when the engine is off?
Name of camera?
Is there a link for the one you are using
Either the Nexar Beam or VIOFO A129 Plus Duo are good options.
Yes I have the viofo a129 plus duo which gets the back as well. The pro has 4k but not worth the extra cost but it is better than the standard because it allows 1440p
Get a good one
This is model I have
VIOFO T130, I think it's a good choice
My is ddpai.
I conected but I don’t know if I need dawload on the phone .
Anybody knows ?
So...what's the brand???
It's VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam.
What is the brand of this dash cam please.
VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam.
Believe me we had a dash cam in a car somebody crashed into us !and we save thousands and thousands of dollars our car was totaled !! The other driver wanted to blame it all on us.
The camera is picking up a horrible glare...oh, that's your bald head 😂

VIOFO T130 3CH

Good for defensive drivers but bad for maniacs. 😂
Papago cameras are the best there is
What cam is that?
It's VIOFO T130 3CH dashcam :)
Keep in mind that the police can seize the SD cards or camera and there goes your evidence. I strongly suggest using a streaming app on your phone or camera to ensure the footage is either sent to a hidden hard drive or stored on a cloud service.
Damn, didnt know this is what Geddy Lee was up to now
Link
anything similar that cheaper?
What's is the name of the little box?
VIOFO T130
Hey some real tips that count and aren't full of options! Great job Scotty! Your growing!
It is illegal in almost every state to mount a dashcam on the windshield. The law usually requires they be mounted on the dashboard
Get a A139pro

As i get older im finding myself driving much more conservative baby my car. Burnouts r for the youngins.
I drove to the capacity of my vehicle, now that im in a 98 horsepower ranger I drive like an old man at 25
I can not have one unless it is IP67 water resistant, dust resistant, and shock resistant.
