Garmin Dash Cam 66W review: Featuresįor anyone who has read our review of the Dash Cam 55 from 2018, this part of the 66W’s review will start to sound very familiar. That’s because Garmin has given the new model the same feature set as its predecessors. This means video is constantly recorded and split into files each 60 seconds long. Once your microSD card gets full, the oldest videos will be recorded over with new footage.Įach video includes date, time, GPS coordinates and current speed in the lower-left corner, and any of these can be switched off from within the settings menu, along with audio recording. When a collision is detected by the camera’s G-sensor, that portion of video is saved and will not be overwritten by new recordings.Īs for extra features beyond these dash cam essentials, the Garmin 66W offers forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and alerts you if the vehicle in front sets off and you don’t. How useful you find these will depend on whether you can see the Garmin’s display while driving. For us, we positioned the camera in a way that its display was obscured by the rear view mirror, so unless we memorised what bleep meant what, the camera’s alerts weren’t too helpful. That said, a loud alarm grabs your attention even if you’re not sure exactly what it is.
