And I totally agree. Those going under the limit when conditions allow are a real pain! 
That's where the kick down switch comes in handy... When conditions allow naturally
I bought a new Dash camera in December to replace the front Transcend DrivePro 200 camera, The Transcend was a great camera for the money £59 back in 2014 with no issues. But it had one major flaw for me seen as the car wasn't used daily.. Roughly after 3-5 days of no use the camera would forget the time/date. Apart from that i couldn't fault it, Maybe it was on the large side so you'd ideally need to remove it when parked up. It even has WiFi connectivity with your smartphone to live stream footage, view clips, edit settings etc... Which for the price was good at the time.. The main thing though was the reliability that's what you need. Something you can just forget while it does it's thing in the background.
The camera I replaced the Transcend with was a unheard of brand to me, But apparently a well known brand in Australia. It's a Street Guardian SG9665GC v2 it's a very compact size, Completely discreet it cannot be seen from the outside as easily compared to most dash cameras... It's got a Novatek 96655 Processor with Sony IMX322 CMOS Sensor, 7 element (6 glass + IR cut filter), F/2.0 all metal lens and lens base, Medium-Wide 135 degrees diagonal, 112 degrees horizontal. It has excellent night viewing very clear. Daylight is also excellent. Every number plate is visible. It can also take up to a 128gb micro SD card so can hold plenty of footage before looping. Overall very happy with it. No WiFi connectivity unfortunately though. Comes with 24 months warranty.
