TruScene Watches Your Car for You

Gone are the days when if someone hit your car they would leave you a note (at least, a lot of people won’t do this any longer). TruScene aims to keep your insurance rates low by monitoring your car. You attach the device to your rearview mirror, and it films events from the front. It only has a 30 second buffer, but …

If a sudden jolt, or bump is detected by the device, then it saves those 30 seconds into its internal memory, giving you a view of the incident, and the moments preceding it. Source: Oh! Gizmo

We Say: Good, but most of my dings are on the side … and what about the rear of the car? Not sure just how useful this really is because of the coverage holes.
