This came up for the B1W and appears to have been solved by creating a small partition.Well, in such countries like Germany it could be a necessity. Up until very recently, private dashcams were essentially useless there if not even "risky" to operate. In case of an accident and following lawsuit courts had no settled opinion if such evidence is even acceptable. And you could easily end up with a fine for privacy law violation.
Recently there was a decision by a high court, that dashcam evidence is legit. But the privacy laws still apply, "wholesale" recording is still forbidden except directly related to the accident.
So, the dashcam market in Germany should slowly start to pick up.
Not sure the 0906 is quite as easy since it doesn't reserve space for locked files.
