Does this have driving break suggestions? If so, where are they? I can't find the safety menu anywhere.

The option is there. I don't have it connected because I have an aftermarket steering wheel. For all it's worth I say save a little more money and get a better unit, this one isn't bad but it is nothing special and can be crappy at points

My hazard switch of my 2005 Impala is also in the near-center dash (not on the steering column). I never encountered the hazard switch during my installation. (BTW, the video I found on youtube helped a lot, too).

The rental car versions are restricted and you can't do that while you drive. That would have been the reason why! :)

I had a switch go loose. Look around the floor of the drivers side, under the pedals, etc, you should find some sort of switch...

Thanks, I'd never heard of those options! I need to write those down and check them out...I bet TONS of people don't know about those, because like I guess Gran Turismo 5 installs tens of thousands of files, and can really fragment things, but the articles I've read about that have never mentioned that options menu!

I bought this item 2 years back when we moved to a house with a steep driveway. I have an SUV with 6-speed manual and it has 4-wheel disk brakes. It is highly recommended that the vehicle is not left with parking brakes to avoid roll-over night-after-night to avoid malfunction in the brake release system. Also, this is a rental house and we could not install this permanently. I usually drive my SUV upto the Eagle 1790 slowly and turn off the engine. I let the vehicle slide on to it gradually till the vehicle stops. Then, I leave the vehicle in 2nd gear to avoid roll-over incase it slides. I have noticed slight sliding, but it held the vehicle for more than 2 years now. It is light but sturdy. I bought this item 2 years back when we moved to a house with a steep driveway.

Your unit is not supposed to shut down at all in the first place while driving. The PAC TR-7 bypass you are looking to buy is to bypass safety functions such as being able to operate the units GPS while driving, playing video while driving and a few other settings regardless of whether your car is in park or not. This bypasses it completely. If your unit is shutting down while driving, thats a different problem. You need to check your connections or take it back to whoever installed it.By the way, i have the same bypass trigger, works perfectly.

Yes to the parking breaks. Suspension is ok. The fabric seat absorbs the bumps better than the suspension.

Just click "Yes". It activates when you hit your brakes hard or hit something. It just takes a quick snapshot of the incident and continues to record. It also keeps the video from being erased.

I wish I could give you an answer to this - the manual is sorely lacking in some areas. When (or should I say IF) Customer Service responds to your query, could you post it here? I would like to know the times for all the menu selections.

I think you have to turn it off, I do not believe it has a safety auto-off on it.

Yes but remember that you are holding the wheel. Put it properly so that you can hold the wheel properly for safety driving

I have to say yes, if you have the cup holder turned toward the emergency break. The flat side should be facing the break. I have found it is easier to put it on the passenger side. Not sure I would buy this again though. I probably would look for another one.

I imagine you'd have to find a way to bypass the Clutch Safety Switch, I'm sure you could find a guide online! Then just make sure you don't leave it in gear, when starting!

I guess you could fiddle with the little buttons on the side to do it, not a great idea while you're driving. Much better to get a cheap navigational GPS which has the speed limits in its database, changes it automatically, and will alert you when you are 5 over. All my units do that, even the "GPS for Dummies" sold here for about $40. This unit is only useful if your speedometer breaks because there is no database stored inside. I recommend just getting a cheap GPS unit, setting the speed alarm, and not even messing with the rest of it, put it face down if you want. Would be half the cost of this and you wouldn't crash while adjusting it. I guess you could fiddle with the little buttons on the side to do it, not a great idea while you're driving.
