You may want that g-sensor working properly while driving in case you are ever involved a serious accident, possibly knocked unconscious and/or transported to a hospital in an ambulance. It's an extra measure to help ensure that the dashcam marks that important recording as read-only so it does not overwrite it if no one else bothers to turn the ignition off before towing it away, or even if someone does turn the ignition off but you have a parking mode enabled, which may also overwrite that important recording. (This all assumes that the battery is still functional in the car after an accident of course.)
I certainly don't mind the g-sensor event getting locked while driving...; but the odds of everything happening such that I need it to prove I got broadsided by someone, or vice versa is not as likely to occur for me, as it would be that someone whacked my car while it was parked and drove off. - - If i could only have one of those features, I would choose "g-sensor in parking mode". You're likely to have zero witnesses while parked and more while driving...although I realize most witnesses disappear very quickly.
