SYDNEY, NSW, AUSTRALIA, July 23, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- THE DASH CAM: THINKWARE, a world-leading dash cam manufacturer, is expanding its commitment to Australian drivers with a connected service plan designed to reduce the long-term costs often associated with connected dash cam ownership.

THE DASH CAM: THINKWARE, a world-leading dash cam manufacturer, is highlighting the growing importance of vehicle surveillance and video evidence as vehicle theft and other vehicle-related crimes continue to rise across Australia.

According to the Insurance Council of Australia, Victoria alone recorded a 25 per cent increase in motor theft claims and a 37 percent rise in incurred costs from 2024 to 2025. This further corroborates its report that motor vehicle theft claims reached $428 million in 2024, nearly double the value of claims recorded a decade ago.

In addition to vehicle theft, Australian motorists continue to face incidents such as vehicle break-ins, vandalism, parking damage, and hit-and-run collisions, many of which occur while vehicles are parked and unattended. The ABS had found that more than half of vehicle thefts and three-quarters of thefts from vehicles occur at a home, underscoring the growing need for around-the-clock vehicle monitoring.

As these incidents become increasingly common, access to reliable video evidence is becoming an important part of modern vehicle ownership.

Growing Demand for Vehicle Protection Beyond the Drive
THINKWARE believes motorists are increasingly seeking solutions that provide protection beyond the time they spend behind the wheel, with technologies that can document incidents and provide visibility when vehicles are unattended.

"Many vehicle-related incidents occur when drivers are away from their vehicles," said Alex Lee, Senior Sales Manager at THINKWARE Australia. "Whether it is a parking lot collision, attempted theft, vandalism, or a hit-and-run incident, having access to clear and reliable video evidence can help motorists better understand what happened and support the insurance claims process."

Helping Drivers Stay Informed and Prepared
