Nice technology, would love it in the car for those drives at night in the hills here.


As for the police, they'll have to pack on mud like arnie in Predator!

I don't this being implemented to Australia. Due to the fact we are way too "safety" conscious and that looking at a screen whilst driving, is not safe (as per Gov).
Yes we are the nanny country.

Just becareful if you buy the wrong camera..... LOL.

I like my long distance night driving when there's nobody around, but I don't like killing our endangered species or encountering some county sheriff with nothing better to do than hide in the bush with the radar/laser out.

Always wanted one of these. Standing out in the middle of the Nullarbor dropping dogs, by the time you drop the second and third one, you've completely lost where you dropped the first one. Having something to find the warm spots would be very handy..

Wow this is one of the best things ive seen that people should install. The front of your car and the whole family from damage in night time trips deffinatly in the country. I like it, it gives you the heads up if there are preditors about and no arnie in site!
