You may remember a couple of months ago that i wrote about Nob week! as people are cutting us up and pulling out on our Vintage vehicals , Well iv brought my self one of those new fangled Dashboard Cams i decided to spend a little more so as i can use it with any vehicle .
There i was busily riding along Enjoying the country side ,,,, When i approached a Blind Left hand bend so coining what comes natural to folk will common sense ! may i add i thought that every one was born with a bit !! How wrong i am . Any way slowed down and then all I could think was SHIT as an eight wheeler tipper truck was on my side of the road ! and not stationary coming straight at me . How we missed ill never now so after pulling all the saddle cover from out my backside the lorry driver said you want to F.@*king well slow down mate , I said do what ? and after he called me all the names under the sun , I said see this mate its called a dash cam , its recorded every thing that you have just said and done and also how fast i was going (20mph by the way ) To which he replied in that case mate I'm ever so sorry , Well couldn't get me hat on how he changed in a wink ,,, and its not the first time its came in use and iv only had it a fortnight !! so i think this may be the way forward unless we are on a 1940's do
They start from as little as £40 and range right up to £200 mine was £100 i found that Maplins is the best as they even give you some money of vouchers
I get the same from the uppity 4x4 yummy mummy types round my way so have been looking at one of these for some time.
Did you get yours from Maplins? got some more details?
I want one for the bike especially.
You are a kinder man than me, I'd have just sent the video to his employer or the old bill or both, and put it on u tube.
