Technology can be a distraction while driving, but there’s some tech that’s specifically designed to make you a safer driver. Dashboard cameras, or dash cams, help you by recording your drive. If you are involved in an accident that was not your fault, a dash cam can help you when dealing with insurance companies.
One kind of especially innovative dash cam is a rearview mirror dash cam, which attaches to the car’s built-in mirror. One side faces out to monitor the road, and the other is a reflective surface that can be used as a regular rearview mirror or as a touchscreen to control the camera.
Mirror dash cams also have a rear backup camera — when you put the car in reverse, the touchscreen display will automatically switch to the feed from behind your car. That way, you can still enjoy the benefits of parking assistance without having to sell your beloved vintage car. These are some of the best mirror dash cameras on Amazon.
