Umm... back on topic then?

This kid's equally lucky and unlucky: lucky he/she wasn't sent crashing through the windscreen yet unlucky to have a parent with no brains to have the kid not even belted let alone in the front seat for such a young age... Jesus.

Looks like he was doing something with the kid as well, not real clear but looks like his arm is out towards her and he's facing her

edit: Seems other people saying the same in the comments
Double edit: it's a doll

You have been warned already about shilling your dashcam channel. Consider this a final warning.

Hi Lightining, thanks for you final warning! I will move myself from this thread and you can please delete all my comments no problem at all! All the best to you guys and stay cool as I am not promoting my channel just videos that I am recording even they are boring to you and I feel sorry about that!

Thanks and all the best to you all!

Since your other thread was closed you probably shouldn't have posted it again.

Nah. Just inch forward till you're in the space. With a big smile on your face. Dashcam would show the reality if they claimed they were 'knocked down'.

This isn't your typical dashcam. It's also on Facebook, so can't embed.

I can embed it, though :pac:

People really should queue in both lanes and merge in turn at the end, then you have two short queues with fair merging at the end, as opposed to one long queue and "queue jumpers" causing RR in the other.

This one is halfway there.

Perhaps he was going for a Dutch angle?

You should have 1/3 of your dash/bonnet in view. Most dashcams adjust exposure at the centre point, with the bonnet in view this means the road ahead is in view. Point it up and it will adjust exposure to the sky and the road will be dark.

Here's a small one I posted in the bus lane thread. Chap drove like an absolute knob. He was tailgating from Palmerstown towards the M50, up ahead from the video he was speeding up the left lane, cut someone off in the middle lane as someone was merging in the left, drove down the bus lane past the Foxhunter, tailgating someone again who was turning into the Texaco.

car passing out double white line need full screen

Joujoujou's clip is in lighter conditions than your first one but still not in clear, bright sun but still easy to watch in the embedded mode.
Your vids i always have to go for full computer screen to see detail. If i were watching those clips on anything else, i would not see the last minute exit escape i think

You won't have the opposite problem at night. It'll expose things correctly both night and day when lowered. Worth a look anyway, wasn't having a go, just thought I'd give you a pointer.

Is the camera not on a mount that allows you to pivot it? Both cameras at home are on mounts that allow you to adjust. Surely pointing it down by a few degrees will fix it. The mount doesn't have to move lower you just need to point it slightly more downwards! The mount should be able to remain behind the mirror.

The idea is to have the sky take up less than half of what the camera sees. This way the camera will meter for the road and lighting ahead, rather than the sky. As it stands, on a bright day it is possible you wouldn't be able to see anything when reviewing footage.

Not really a goer as it then puts the camera lower than the mirror and hence into the "visible" area of windscreen masking out possible road hazards, you know the kind of thing where people have a sat nav sat in the middle of the screen instead of a corner!

Spook, point your cam towards the road more. It's underexposing due to being pointed at the bright sky.

Was it an add on? Unfortunately the cam has no focus settings built it, very annoying as the rear cam is perfect.

There's a few online articles about Blackvue cameras in general drifting in and out of focus, Google search might help
