Quartz watch are neither as intricate nor as intriguing to many collectors as their mechanical counterparts, but with very few exceptions, they do a considerably better job of keeping time. At least one manufacturer of low-priced quartz watches specifies their accuracy as ±15 seconds per month, suggesting an accumulated error of just a few minutes per year. This type of accuracy is sufficient for most people, who are generally happy if their watch remains within a minute or two of the correct time. In fact, many quartz watch owners set their watches only a few times per year – typically when they change the battery, change time zones, or switch to and from daylight saving time. Unless their watch is broken or the battery is dead, its timekeeping accuracy is never in question.

So you are looking for a dashboard camera, but aren’t quite sure yet which model is best for you? This site will help you make your decision, no matter whether your budget is big or small. We’ve got reviews of the best rated dashboard cameras available in each price range.
Dashboard cameras are also known as SJ4000 dash cams, dashcams, car cameras, car DVRs, or even accident recorders (although they do record a lot more than just accidents — see below). They are becoming ever more popular, and there is a huge variety of devices on the market already, mostly from small or little-known manufacturers.

Why use a dash cam?
If you’re reading this, you’ve probably seen footage of the meteor explosions and ridiculous traffic collisions captured by Russian drivers. As WIRED explains, drivers in Russia and elsewhere use dash cams to have legal evidence to protect them from insurance fraud. In a place like Russia (or anywhere, really), there’s the potential for depraved drivers to, for example, back into your front end and claim it as you rear-ending them.
With a camera rolling, you have proof of the grift—and in a country with potentially unscrupulous law enforcement, this can be especially valuable. With globalization and the quick shrinking of technology, dash cams are cheap and reliable enough to be a worthwhile buy if you think you’d benefit from one.
