My install is not done yet, but when it is I will create an install thread. Here is a video with what I have so far.

Good safe driving on your part though. :thumbsup:
How did the entrapment turn out?
ISU_Cyclone said:Only thing I would critique myself on is use of the air horn...I think I came off as being a jerk by laying on the horn when they didn't pull over immediately. Oh well...
Zack said:I thought you handled those stubborn motorists very well. You waited until they noticed you and started pulling over before making the move to pass. Great job.
(Although I do have to say every time you didn't stop at a stop sign I cringed and had a little heart attack... In my parts one *always* stops at all stop lights and signs, regardless of the existence of traffic. Worst case you don't think you see someone but missed the bicyclist or motorcycle or pedestrian, best case someone hears your siren looks out the window and sees you blowing the sign... I teach my guys to always stop no matter what... not to mention it's the law in my state.)
But really... excellent job with those other cars!

ISU_Cyclone said:Todays call...PS why are these YouTube links not automatically embedding for me anymore?
VolEms said:Why dont you back in. That will save you a few seconds. As well I think a Headlight Flasher would do wonders on this car.
bwoodruff said:Nice videos.
I'd love to get a dash cam.
Steve0625 said:Don't you just love the boneheads who pull out around the car ahead of them that has pulled over for you and try to keep on going?
Well said. Remember a camera can only see a fraction of what the human eye can. Visibility is much greater than it appears.ISU_Cyclone said:Thanks!
I slow down and cover the brake while making eye contact with the other vehicles. I feel comfortable being able to stop if someone were to pull out.
