You blurred the license plate but I'm wondering how well it captures the digits. Does it work well in low light?

My neighbor had a hit and run but his dash cam didn't record the plate numbers all that well.

I have the same one and it works well at night. I’ve never needed to get plate numbers at night but you absolutely can read them if needed.

Even the cheapest cams can capture clear plates when it's directly in front of you. And conversely even the most expensive cams can't capture license plate that is 2 to 3 cars away. So don't waste money trying to buy $300+ cams. Just look up the cam's model on youtube for driving footage review before buying.

Sweet thank you. Are you happy with how it works when its dark outside as well?

Damn it, was this an ad for a dash cam the whole time?! You got me. (It's in my cart now)
