Product Review

The compact, discreet GPS-enabled Garmin Dash Cam 56 provides a wide 140-degree field of view. It clearly captures important details in high-quality 1440 HD video — in all light conditions — if an incident occurs. It also provides advanced driver alerts (certain conditions may impair the waring function), including forward collision, lane departure and a “Go” alert to enhance driver awareness. Get alerts for red light camera and speed camera location alerts (not available in all areas) with unlimited updates via the Garmin Drive app. Say “OK, Garmin” to start/stop audio recording, take a still picture or start/stop the Travel apse video capture feature. Automatic multisided sync allows you to play back “picture-in-picture” video captured from up to four dash cams in use at the same time, so you can see multiple points of view with the Garmin Drive app if an incident happens. Parking mode monitors your car’s surroundings while your car is parked and the engine is not running. It automatically begins recording if and when motion is detected. (Requires Garmin parking mode cable, sold separately; professional installation recommended. )
