Dash Cams: A Two-Way Street

Have you ever seen a car with a little camera stuck to the windshield? That's a dash cam. More and more drivers are using them, and for good reason! Lieutenant Nathan Dennis of the Ohio State Highway Patrol has noticed this trend.

Why Dash Cams Are Cool

Dash cams are like tiny video cameras for your car. They can record everything that happens on the road, which can be super helpful if you get into an accident. Imagine you're in a fender bender and the other driver says it was your fault. If you have a dash cam, you can show the video to the police and prove that you weren't at fault! That's pretty cool, right?

But Wait, There's More

Dash cams can also catch people doing bad things, like running red lights or speeding. If someone cuts you off or almost causes an accident, your dash cam can record it. This can help you and the police figure out who was in the wrong.

The Other Side of the Coin

While dash cams can be great for protecting yourself, they can also be used against you. If you're the one who was speeding or driving recklessly, your dash cam footage could get you in trouble. So, it's important to be a good driver, even if you have a dash cam.

“If you’re someone who is distracted while driving, if you’re someone who speeds, if you’re someone who uses their phone while driving, you might want to think twice about having a dash cam,” Nathan Dennis said.

What Does the Law Say In Ohio?

Don’t obstruct the windshield in Ohio

Dash cams are legal in Ohio, but it’s illegal to mount them on your drivers’ windshields. Stick to installing them on dashboards, or anywhere else in the car.

Interestingly, Ohio law states that it’s legal to record video and audio in the cab, so long as the dash cam doesn’t obscure any of the windshield.

Lawyer Kluesner advised that everyone should drive defensively, whether or not they have a dash cam.
