What to look for in a dash cam

Pick one with front and rear cameras, at least 1440p on the front, a supercapacitor (it handles Florida heat better than a battery) and parking mode if you leave your car on the street. Use a high-endurance microSD card so recordings don't fail.

A note on license plate covers

Tinted or blocking plate covers are illegal in most states, including Florida. LensRadar recommends staying legal: know where cameras are instead of hiding your plate.
