TESTER’S NOTES
Matt Prior
Now there’s a rare sight: two traffic police cars in the same place
I
don’t use a dashcam, despite how useful they can be to prove one’s innocence following a collision.
That’s partly because of the faff of setting one up every time I test a different car, but mostly because of who I might become. When dashcams first appeared, I didn’t anticipate how they could turn a number of us into –how to put it? – such antagonistic snitches. Abunch of lowdown grasses. Squealers. People thriving on catching other road users making errors and then taking delight in fessing them up online. Could I be that kind of person? Perhaps. Best not find out, I think.
