A watchful eye on the road. looking ahead, but also behind and inside the car. A true sentinel that helps us settle questions about the right and wrong of a road accident, and prevent scams by those who try to pretend to come upon us. These are the advantages of dashcams that cost from around 50 to over 500euro for sophisticated solutions with dual front and rear cameras as well as 4G data module to monitor the car remotely. Two brands to watch out for are 70Mai and Garmin. In fleet cars, fixed installation, with the device permanently connected to the on-board 12-volt network, requires authorisation from the renter. And Nlt operators would do well to introduce them in fleets (or to push those few models that have them as standard). If the renter does not respond positively, there is always the choice of connecting the dashcam via the cigarette lighter socket or to the USB port: you lose the constant sentinel function but it is better than nothing.
