And the purpose of a Ring car camera is? Security? Anti-theft?
Their popularity is generally to provide evidence in the event of a crash or road rage along with making a record of a traffic stop. They also collect video of theft or vandalism.

I'm confused...so it's not a dash cam, or is it? I'm pretty sure there are actual dash cams that also come with a parking mode.

I don’t understand the confusion. It’s a dash cam. An actual dash cam. The brand is Ring.
I'm confused because the Ring website doesn't even talk about the dash cam functionality, and because everyone keeps calling it a car cam/security cam, and mostly I'm confused because I'm old.

Scroll down to the bottom and swipe through the uses. I understand what you’re saying because they do lead you to believe at a quick glance that it’s only for stationary use.

What if a crash is your fault and the camera shows this? Not so good, right?
If it was my fault, I would still own up to it like a proper human being.

The person that hit me was more in line with wanting to hit and run, so yeah worth every penny.

Only bad thing, for myself, is that ring cam doesn’t ship these to US territories. (I live on Guam) I would like to add this to my Maverick but ring doesn’t seem to agree😂.

Amazon has it listed as "no longer available". Sounds like too many customer negative reviews. Seems like more for thief and accident damage verses videos of accident in progress.
