As important as a tire inflator or a jump starter is, a dash cam is one of the must-have essentials for any modern driver. It's one of those 'just in case' items that'll save you some grief in a pinch. And the good news is you don't have to spend a lot of money for a high-quality camera. This iZeeker iD220 dash cam, for instance, offers 1080p full HD front and rear recording with dual 170-degree wide-angle lenses for only $29 after a 68% discount.
iZeeker iD220 Dual Dash Camera, $29 (was $90) at Walmart
Among its key features, the iZeeker iD220 provides enhanced night vision recording thanks to its F1.8 aperture and WDR technology. Whether you're traveling during the day or at night, the camera offers dependable, continuous recording with new footage overwriting the old only when it runs out of space. In the event of a collision, a built-in G-sensor detects the impact and locks the file for safekeeping.
The iD220 dash cam comes with a 32GB microSD card pre-installed, offering plenty of space for your recordings without needing to purchase additional storage upfront. All of that data is protected in temperatures as low as -4 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. In addition to automatic recordings, you also have the option for manual video recording or photo stills.
Equipped with a clear 2-inch LCD display, the iZeeker iD220 dash cam is compact, and an included suction cup mount allows for a seamless installation, which many customers praised in the reviews.
'Best 1080 dash cam,' proclaimed one reviewer. 'Awesome image capturing and easy to install … I tried multiple dash cams on Amazon even with more resolution (4K) but I can say this is the best so far and [for] $40 it is very worthy.' A second reviewer wrote that it's a 'great camera for the money spent.'
Another shopper called it a 'must-have,' adding that you can 'use the back cam for backing up and also recording the vehicle behind your car. The dash cam in the front mounts easily and does not obstruct your view. The video is crystal clear and I am very satisfied with my purchase.'
Along with the required installation gear, the iZeeker iD220 dash cam also ships with a car charger, micro USB cable, a crowbar, and a user manual. It's protected by a 1-year limited warranty.

Motorcyclist sues after out-of-control ‘self-driving' Tesla mows him down on Texas highway
A Tesla Model 3 in Autopilot mode unexpectedly veered across multiple lanes of highway traffic and slammed into a motorcyclist, demolishing the bike and sending the rider and his passenger to the hospital, according to a $1 million-plus lawsuit pending in Texas. Godofredo Pacheco is 'still in pain and still undergoing treatment' five months later, attorney Demetris Gonzalez told The Independent. The 29-year-old continues to suffer from pain in his head, neck, shoulder, back, and the 'majority of the left side of his body,' Gonzalez said. 'The bike was a total loss,' he added, noting that the crash left Pacheco 'very scared.' Pacheco's 22-year-old girlfriend, who was on the back of the motorcycle, endured similar injuries and remains partially incapacitated, according to Gonzalez. The two were 'minding their own business' on a ride in Houston when Pacheco spotted the Tesla 'driving erratically,' according to Gonzalez. He said Pacheco attempted to keep his distance from the vehicle, to no avail, and that the Tesla driver, 19-year-old Lina Wu, later told police that the car was operating autonomously at the time of the wreck. Wu did not respond on Friday to multiple requests for comment. Messages sent to Tesla seeking comment also went unreturned. Both are named as defendants in the case. Pacheco's troubles stem from a ride he took on January 17, 2025, when he and his girlfriend were traveling south in the far left lane of State Highway 288, according to a civil complaint filed June 13 in Harris County District Court and obtained first by The Independent. Wu, the complaint says, was behind the wheel of the 2024 Tesla Model 3 in the far-right lane, 'and was allowing the Vehicle to be controlled by Tesla's automatic driving assist,' the complaint states. Then, it says, the Tesla 'suddenly and without warning… steered left and crossed 3 lanes,' veering dangerously close to Pacheco. '[Pacheco] noticed the Vehicle's [erratic] behavior and switched lanes to the middle-left lane, in an attempt to avoid the Vehicle altogether,' the complaint goes on. 'As [Pacheco] moved right to merge into the middle-left lane, the Vehicle steered right, merging into [his] lane again, striking [Pacheco's] motorcycle, sending [him and his girlfriend] flying off the motorcycle and onto the highway.' An ambulance rushed Pacheco and his girlfriend to the hospital, where they were treated for their injuries, according to the complaint. When police arrived, Wu was issued a citation for making an unsafe lane change. 'Ms. Wu did say the Tesla was being driven automatically," Gonzalez told The Independent. The Tesla Model 3 owner's manual touts the vehicle's purportedly autonomous features under its 'Autopilot' umbrella, such as 'Autosteer,' which, according to the manual, 'detects lane markings, road edges, and the presence of vehicles and objects to intelligently keep Model 3 in its driving lane.' 'When you engage a turn signal while Autosteer is active, Auto Lane Change moves Model 3 into the adjacent lane in the direction indicated by the turn signal,' the manual tells new Tesla owners. According to Pacheco's complaint, the automatic driving assist feature in Wu's Model 3 'was not functioning as intended, making the vehicle unreasonably dangerous to use.' Wu, the complaint argues, 'was using the vehicle as Tesla intended it to be used.' To that end, the complaint maintains that the extensive injuries Pacheco and his girlfriend suffered 'were proximately caused by Tesla's defective vehicle.' As the Trump administration loosens rules on self-driving cars, handing Tesla CEO and billionaire Trump backer Elon Musk a tidy win, the Biden administration criticized Tesla for exaggerating its self-driving claims. Among other things, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has called the company out for even using the term 'Autopilot' at all, which the agency believes can lull drivers into the false belief that Tesla vehicles can truly operate themselves. Earlier this year, a Tesla owner in Westchester County, New York, sued the automaker after claiming to have activated the autopilot feature in his Model Y sedan, which then promptly drove itself into a tree. Last December, the family of Genesis Giovanni Mendoza Martinez, a 31-year-old California man who was crushed to death behind the wheel of a Tesla Model S in ' full self-driving mode,' sued the manufacturer over its claims the vehicle was truly autonomous. The lawyer representing Mendoza's family told The Independent in a previous interview that Tesla is 'using our public roadways to perform research and development' of autonomous driving technology that 'is not really ready for primetime.' Gonzalez hopes Pacheco's case will add an additional voice to the growing calls for increased oversight and regulation regarding Tesla's safety record. 'We don't want stuff like this happening to people as frequently as it is happening,' Gonzalez told The Independent. 'These vehicles have been out for quite some time. We figured they would be adhering to whatever industry standards they do have, but this is senseless behavior with regard to their malfunctioning equipment.' Pacheco and his girlfriend are now seeking actual, consequential, statutory, and exemplary damages for past and future physical pain and suffering, physical impairment, mental anguish, severe emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, property damage, and anxiety, plus medical expenses and legal costs. A trial date has not yet been set.

Major car brand issues ‘stop driving immediately' recall after 700,000 motors in France – check if you're affected
A MAJOR carmaker has recalled thousands of motors due to a defect that could prove deadly. Owners of popular Citroën models - built between 2009 and 2019 - have been warned to stop driving their cars immediately. 4 4 4 Stellantis has told all owners of 2009-2019 Citroën Mk1 DS 3s and Mk2 Citroën C3s in the UK to stop driving their cars immediately. This includes both the Citroën DS 3 and later examples of the supermini - sold solely under the DS brand. It comes a week after a driver died after the Takata airbag in her 2014 Citroën C3 exploded. The 37-year-old woman in Reims, France, suffered fatal injuries - prompting the recall of the popular car model. France's Transport Minister Philippe Tabarot called for all C3 and DS3 vehicles with Takata airbags to be taken off the road on Tuesday. French carmaker Citroën had already recalled the affected cars - replacing airbags in just under 70 percent of the 690,000 vehicles. But Tabarot said the company's response had been 'unacceptable and scandalous' and had 'not matched the scale of the risk'. Citroën's new director Xavier Chardon later told AFP the brand would be placing all affected cars across Europe under a "stop-drive" order "to speed up repairs". Affected C3 and DS 3 owners will be informed by letter, said Stellantis. The company is urging owners to check their address and contact details with the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) are up to date - so they can be reached without delay. Ford Recalls 148,000 Vehicles: Fire & Crash Risks Explained Motorists can also use the Citroën UK website to check if their car is affected - using a vehicle identification number (VIN) search. Stellantis UK has urged owners of affected vehicles to register for an airbag repair immediately. This can be done online or by calling either the company's recall helpline or Citroën customer care. Stellantis said it is 'mobilising its full network of suppliers, retailers and manufacturing plants' to ensure the repairs take place as quickly as possible. It added: 'Stellantis remains fully committed to acting swiftly, transparently, and responsibly in addressing this issue.' Faulty Takata airbags were responsible for the largest vehicle recall in history. Taking place in 2017, the recall affected over 100 million vehicles worldwide across multiple car brands - including Honda, Toyota, BMW, Ford, Nissan and Stellantis. The airbags, manufactured by Japanese company Takata Corporation, were found to have defective inflators that could explode with excessive force during deployment. It comes as numerous other car models with Takata airbags - sold between 2001 and 2018 - have been urged not to use their vehicles. These include models such as the Toyota Yaris, Toyota Corolla, Mercedes A-Class II, and the Mercedes C-Class II and III. The new announcement came in April as at least 29 airbag-related incident have been recorded in France - including 17 deaths - since 2016. Meanwhile, Ford is recalling over a million cars after discovering a software glitch that could increase the risk of a crash. The recall affects 1,075,299 vehicles across the UK and worldwide. The problem involves rear view cameras freezing or failing to display properly when the vehicle is put into reverse. The American National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) confirmed the fault, warning: 'A frozen or missing rearview camera image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.' Ford has acknowledged the issue, confirming that there have been no reported injuries linked to the fault so far. 4

As Musk's 'robotaxi' rollout approaches, Democratic lawmakers in Texas try to throw up a roadblock
A group of Democratic lawmakers in Texas is asking Elon Musk to delay the planned rollout of driverless 'robotaxis' in the state this weekend to assure that the vehicles are safe. In a letter, seven state legislators asked Tesla to wait until September when a new law takes effect that will require several checks before autonomous vehicles can be deployed without a human in the driver's seat. Tesla is slated to begin testing a dozen of what it calls robotaxis for paying customers on Sunday in a limited area of Austin, Texas. 'We are formally requesting that Tesla delay autonomous robotaxi operations until the new law takes effect on September 1, 2025,' the letter from Wednesday, June 18, reads. 'We believe this is in the best interest of both public safety and building public trust in Tesla's operations.' It's not clear if the letter will have much impact. Republicans have been a dominant majority in the Texas Legislature for more than 20 years. State lawmakers and Republican Gov. Greg Abbott have generally embraced Musk and the jobs and investment he has brought to Texas, from his SpaceX rocket program on the coast, to his Tesla factory in Austin. The company, which is headquartered in Austin, did not responded immediately to a request for comment from The Associated Press. The law will require companies to secure approval from the state motor vehicles department to operate autonomous cars with passengers. That approval, in turn, would depend on sufficient proof that the cars won't pose a high risk to others if the self-driving system breaks down, among other reassurances. Companies would also have to file detailed plans for how first responders should handle the cars if there is a problem, such as an accident. The letter asked Tesla to assure the legislators it has met all the requirements of the law even if it decides to go ahead with the test run this weekend. The letter was earlier reported by Reuters. Musk has made the robotaxi program a priority at Tesla and a failure would likely be highly damaging to the company's stock, which has already tumbled 20% this year. Musk's political views and his affiliation with the Trump administration have drastically reduced sales of Tesla, particularly in Europe, where Musk's endorsement of Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany party in February's election drew broad condemnation. Tesla shares bottomed out in March and have rebounded somewhat in recent months. Much of the rise reflects optimism that robotaxis will not only be deployed without a hitch, but that the service will quickly expand to other cities and eventually dominate the self-driving cab business. Rival Waymo is already picking up passengers in Austin and several other cities, and recently boasted of surpassing 10 million paid rides. In afternoon trading Friday, Tesla shares were largely unchanged at $320. ________ AP reporter Jim Vertuno contributed from Austin.
