A dash cam in a car is a necessity because in the event of an accident, a conflict situation, or an attempt at fraud, it can help reconstruct the events and confirm exactly how things unfolded.
For basic protection, a driver does not need to buy expensive equipment, as affordable models cost up to 2 thousand hryvnias, MapOn writes.
Footage from the dash cam helps avoid disputes and is an important piece of evidence for an insurance company. The article discusses why a car camera can be useful to drivers and which models to pay attention to.
You can find dash cams on Prom. Overall, the marketplace offers more than 120 million products, including a variety of automotive items: motor oils, batteries, auto chemicals, and quality tires. If you want to check the dash cam and make sure it suits you, the Prom Pay option is suitable. Funds will be transferred to the seller's account only after the order is received.
What are the benefits of car cameras?
After a collision, participants can interpret the situation differently, and sometimes someone deliberately tries to shift responsibility to another driver.
A dash cam can capture events just before and after a collision. This allows you to see how the cars were moving, who was performing a maneuver, and under what circumstances the accident occurred.
If disputes arise after a traffic accident, a video recording can simplify the investigation of the circumstances. You can simply provide the recording that shows the road situation.
The camera can also capture a sharp cut-in, violations of the rules by other drivers, a pedestrian suddenly entering the road, or a dangerous maneuver by a cyclist.

For drivers who spend a lot of time behind the wheel, this is an additional level of protection. This is especially relevant for company cars and transport used throughout the workday.
Sometimes the camera itself becomes a deterrent that makes a driver maneuver more carefully and follow the rules.
Among the best dash cams at an affordable price on Prom you can find:
70mai M310 Pro (Plus) 2K Wi-Fi – 1440p recording, 143 degree field of view, WDR, night recording, parking mode (1999 hryvnias).
Full HD 1080P, two cameras 170 – front and rear camera, wide viewing angle. A good option for those who want two cameras (1600 hryvnias).
DVR V13, 2 cameras, 1080p – the most affordable of the three, has night mode and rear camera (1459 hryvnias).
For everyday use, drivers do not need to buy a professional surveillance system. Basic dash cams can record the road in sufficient quality to analyze an accident, and some models are additionally equipped with night recording, loop recording, and impact detection.
The cost of such devices can be relatively low, so a camera for 2 thousand hryvnias is an affordable way to add an extra layer of protection to your vehicle and have video evidence on hand in case of an unforeseen situation.
When choosing, pay attention not only to price but also to recording quality, viewing angle, and performance in low light. These characteristics most strongly affect the device's practicality in real road conditions.
