Strange Dashboard Cam - MrWednesday
Strangest thing in the supermarket carpark last night. A Renault MPV was parked up with a web cam (looked like a logitech 'ball' type) bolted to the dash pointing at the driver seat. Is this the next - all be it alittle rought with this example of the next type of in-car security we can expect? Or do the owners have a realtime blog somewhere?

Anybody else seen this type of weird?

No keys that I saw, and the install was not discrete by any description to suggest it was being used as bait.

Probably a crude overt anti theft device. Or as you say a "blogger"
