If someone hits you you should always read the license plate out loud (more than once if possible) so that the dash cam records your voice and therefore the number. I see a handful of dashcam users who do this and I think it's a great idea and a good to have a backup method of recording the number. Edit: It probably wouldn't hurt for you to say the make, model and color of the vehicle and description of the driver.

The whole point is able to get a clear image, do you have any good recommendation? I'm in the market for one. Thanks.

Sadly 4K won't help you read license plates or see at night, it's not the hardware, it's a lack of developed software for better image processing vs adding meaningless but attention grabbing, marketable features.

Here's why:

With that said, I have a 3 Garmin cams for acually accessible support if needed (none have been needed). However, for best image quality for the buck Viofo A119 V3 for front or A129 for front + rear is hard to beat.

Even mirrorless cameras at night will struggle.

Or a crime lab with someone who can say "enhance!" a couple times with a furrowed brow.

I have a Vantrue dash cam and it's really nice. It captures license plates if they aren't too far ahead. I'll also read aloud license plates just in case so the video captures it one way or another.
