Dash Cam France

[Meggan Shankman]

Thisitalian navy blue silk provides an interesting texture with its tone-on-tone blue dashes pattern. All our ties have a CINABRE red silk twill lining. This tie belongs to the Elyse Blue Collection, the French President's favorite ties.

This piece is entirely handmade with a red slip stitch making a loop at the bottom of the tie. The fabric will then keep its elasticity and the tie will recover its initial shape after being used.

It is also a "double-four-fold" tie with a 100% wool interlining. These additional folds require much more fabric and more handwork resulting in an elegant drape. Furthermore, this exclusive "savoir faire" will provide a better shape over time.

To make your tie even more unique, a name or initials and a date can be handwritten on the label.

"Are Dash Cams Legal in France?" Well, yes! Under strict rules though. Dash Cams, whilst being the unsung heroes of Road Traffic Collisions (RTCs), mysterious and ominous recordings, or even "You've Been Framed" moments, a lot of countries still find Dash Cams to be a very new technology - and that scares some people.

Recording in Public Spaces: In France, recording video in public spaces is allowed as long as it does not infringe on individuals' privacy rights. This means you can use a dash cam to record the road and surroundings while driving.

Audio Recording: Audio recordings, however, is subject to stricter regulations. French law prohibits the recording of conversations without the consent of all parties involved. So if your dash cam has an audio recording feature, it's essential to disable it or ensure you have the consent of everyone in the vehicle before enabling it.

Data Protection and Privacy: You should be careful about sharing or uploading dash cam footage that could potentially reveal personal information about individuals or violate their privacy.

Disable Audio Recording: As previously stated, to comply with French privacy laws, disable the audio recording feature on your dash cam or make sure to obtain consent from all occupants in the vehicle before enabling it.

Inform Passengers: If you have passengers in your vehicle, inform them that a dash cam is in use. This helps ensure transparency and may also serve as a reminder to avoid sensitive or private conversations.

Avoid Recording Private Spaces: Be mindful of where you park your vehicle and avoid pointing the dash cam at private properties (e.g., homes, gardens) to respect individuals' privacy rights.

Use Dash Cam for Safety and Documentation: Utilise the dash cam primarily for safety purposes, such as capturing evidence in case of accidents or incidents on the road. It can be helpful for insurance claims or legal purposes if needed.

Comply with Data Protection Laws: Handle dash cam footage responsibly and be cautious when sharing or uploading videos to respect the privacy of individuals captured in the recordings.

Regularly Check Dash Cam Operation: Ensure that your dash cam is functioning correctly and is capturing clear footage. Regularly review and back up the recorded videos to a secure location.

Choose a High-Quality Dash Cam: Invest in a reputable and reliable dash cam that meets legal requirements and provides good video quality, especially for use in potential legal proceedings or insurance claims.

With advanced multiple exposure technology, A119V3 offers a greater range of light levels to restore real life image quality and solve over exposure issues at night to clearly capture car license plate numbers.

With the built-in G-sensor, the camera can automatically lock the video when it detects shaking or collision, preventing important files from being overwritten during loop recording. There are three sensitivity levels for the G-sensor: low, medium, and high.

Dashcams require a memory card that can withstand heavy writing cycles. A high-endurance card, designed especially for heavy use and write-intensive applications, is extremely critical for dash cam recording.

Cheap cards, the main cause in most unexplainable recording issues, have poor performance in non-stop writing endurance and are less likely to withstand harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures.

A few hundred meters before each exit the frequency of these dashes changes. They are much closer together but still don't form a solid line. As soon as the exit is passed, the line changes back to dashes spread further apart, just as before.

In France, the same markings are also used on country roads, when overtaking is not strictly forbidden but should only be done for particularly slow vehicles. In both cases, it means more-or-less the same thing: Crossing the line is not forbidden but you are encouraged not to do it if you can avoid it.

According to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals ( ), Chapter IV, Article 26, paragraph 2 (a), a broken line can be used (i) "to demarcate lanes" or (ii) "to give warning of the approach to a continuous line ... or of the approach to another section of road presenting a particular danger."

This is actually a way to tell that, if not driving on the rightmost lane already, it is too late to merge right to reach the exit ramp in safe conditions. Drivers should prepare soon enough to get in correct position to exit before it is reached as there are signs soon enough that mention the remaining distance.

Note: this is completely unrelated to the thick dashes that delimitate the beginning and end of exit and entry ramps. If those dashes are seen on the main roadway delimitating the rightmost lane, they mark a reserved lane for trucks & slow vehicles (60 km/h) during an uphill section. The blue disc sign maked with "VEHICULES LENTS" (slow vehicles) should be seen at the beginning.

When Dash cams were a new phenomenon, people marvelled at how drivers managed to record footage on their smartphones of meteorites in Russia, an aircraft crashing into a river in Taiwan and wheels coming off vehicles on the motorway, while at the same time driving their car. When informed that they were filmed by dash cams, people had no idea what they were.

All Thinkware dash cams offer safety camera alerts when equipped either with an internal or external GPS antenna. Now in France it is illegal to pinpoint the location of the enforcement cameras, however it is allowed to advise of danger zones where cameras are located somewhere within that zone.

I know I'm not alone when I say that a lot of what I love about watches is the nostalgia of it all. It's also an overlooked part of what ties the love of watches and cars together; it's not just about mechanical objects but the romance of design. Last year, I got sucked deep into the nostalgia of both watches and the role they've played in automotive history when I visited Rennsport at Laguna Seca. It was great to see all the incredible cars, interesting watches, and awesome people drawn in by both. But one thing stuck in my mind more than most: dash timers.

That's right. Out of everything there, I spent a few extra minutes standing around the TAG Heuer booth, looking at the old rally timers on display and the new dash timer/clock pair in the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Panamericana unveiled in the booth. I thought to myself, "Why aren't people making these anymore?" And as with any time I see something good and nostalgic, I immediately pulled out my phone and start looking for deals on old Heuer dash timers.

If you want a dash timer now, you've basically one great option on the market: Hanhart. But now, thanks to Baltic, you've got another. Really, that was the biggest surprise about the set I got to spend some time with a few weeks before the release. Baltic makes great watches, and when they tell you they've got a new chronograph, you generally know what to expect in the best possible way. Believe me, I own one. But when they told me they were taking their next limited edition release a step further with a dash timer, it was both a surprise and some dream come true for that nostalgia-driven part of my brain that tempts me to buy things I probably don't need but desperately want. First, there's a watch to talk about.

The idea for the new set from Baltic came in support of the brand's role as the official timekeeper for the Tour Auto 2024, a French road rally running April 21 to 27. The rally actually dates back to the Tour de France Automobile which started back in 1899, making it the oldest rally still in existence. This time, the route starts in Paris and ends in Biarritz, with stops to compete on the Le Mans, Val de Vienne, Nogaro, and Pau Arnos circuits. In a way, it's kind of funny to see such a young brand associated with such an old race, but through our chats, I've learned the team at Baltic are massive lovers of auto sport and automotive history.

The crew is not only sponsoring the event but partaking in it. They have a BMW M1 with Baltic livery. Finish rally car legend and four-time Paris Dakar Rally-winner Ari Vatanen will be driving with the team. And while both cars and watches can be expensive hobbies, they don't have to be, as this commemorative chronograph shows.

Having handled a few of Baltic's three-register chronographs before, the first thing that struck me was the very nicely done, relatively subtle tricolore French theme. You've got a mix of red, white, and blue, all in slightly different hues around the watch. The colors they've chosen are harmonious enough that they don't clash, but soft enough that it doesn't smack you in the face of French nationalism the way a pair of "stars-and-stripes" shorts does.
