Dash cams are cameras that are mounted on the dashboard of your car to record happenings on the road. These devices are extremely useful in case of accidents or other traffic violation cases to identify who is at fault.
Dash cams usually record videos in MOV or AVI format and store them on an SD card located inside the camera. They start recording when you turn ON the car and stop when you turn it OFF. This process continues until the SD card memory is full. Once it’s full, they over-write files starting from the oldest. This nature of dash cams makes their SD cards vulnerable to fragmentation and bad sectors, thus leading to corruption in files stored on these cards.
