A dash cam is an important feature included in a lot of new cars, but a well-placed car camera and other advanced tech aren’t simply “nice to have,” they’re vital to ensure the safety of the driver and passengers.
Unfortunately, reports tell us that the average car in this country is at least 12 years old. And you know what that means? An old car means old tech. Many are driving around without the safety features afforded to us by newer cars. Shelling out for a new car might seem like the easy solution, but buying a brand-new car just isn’t feasible for a lot of people who are already struggling to make ends meet.
Thankfully, most of us are already within arm’s reach of a nifty little computer – our smartphones. By wielding the power of our phones, we can take advantage of many of the features built into newer cars. This, of course, requires the right app to make it happen. That app is Driver Tech.
Driver Tech is easily the best dash cam app you’ll find for iOS or Android. By utilizing the camera in your phone, Driver Tech captures your drive on video, including any incident in real-time. God forbid there are any accidents or other such incidents, but if there are, you’ll have it all recorded right there in the app, ready to be shared.
Driver Tech not only records in real time like a typical dash cam, it also actively works to prevent accidents. The car camera app will alert you if something veers into your path, allowing you to maneuver in an effort to avoid an accident.
Knowing where you’re going and how traffic might look along your route is another invaluable feature for any driver on the road. The navigation tool in the Driver Tech dash cam app allows you to GPS and check for traffic and weather on your route, so you can make informed decisions and avoid any surprises.
In addition to all the cool tech features that elevate your driver experience, users can leverage the Driver Tech app to help them receive discounts from auto insurance companies. After driving with the app for only two weeks, you’ll receive an assigned driver score. This score will allow you to receive discounts directly through the dash cam app.
You can download the Driver Tech app for free in the Google Play or App Store.
