We’ve all seen our fair share of strange things happen whilst behind the wheel. I once saw a naked man pretending to fire bullets from his penis as he walked down a busy street, and if I had that on film who knows what untold riches I could extract by way of blackmail.
The point is the road, especially in this country, is full of the weird and (not so) wonderful. Unless you’re a fan of spot fines from traffic officers you’re not driving around filming everything, and if you are then we might need to have words. That’s a talk for a different day though, what am I droning on about?
There’s a growing trend among road users of installing dash cam recorders, a way to be sure whatever goes down isn’t just a case of one person’s word against another. When you consider you can get a 2.7” Full HD 1080P Car Dash Camera Video Recorder for just R649 these days (35% off, free delivery) it seems like they might be on to something.
