According to tech experts, installing a dash cam could save you hundreds on repairs if your car is damaged while parked. 

The small recording devices can record scrapes, bumps and even break ins while your car is parked. Which could provide crucial evidence for your insurance provider if your car is hit or broken into while you’re away, if engaged in ‘parking mode’. 

‘Parking mode’ works by using motion sensors to detect movement around your vehicle and immediately starts recording when it senses interference. This can even help deter potential thieves from trying to break in in the first place.

Dashcams are small, on-board video cameras installed behind the rear-view mirror that record your journey, and have grown in popularity in recent years.
