Russian Dash Cams are Everywhere, Do You Need to Have One Too?

If you use Facebook then you have probably seen several videos from Dash Cams in Russia.  I started to wonder, 'Does everyone in Russia have a Dash Cam?'  The answer is, well almost everyone.  Last year Wired posted an article, "Why Almost Everyone in Russia has a Dash Cam."  http://www.wired.com/2013/02/russian-dash-cams/   Here is what I learned:

• Motorists have the Dash Cams to use in case they are involved in a traffic crash
• Russia averages 25.2 traffic fatalities per 100,000 compared to 13.9 per 100,000 in the USA
• Conduct a search in YouTube or Yandex.ru (Russia's equivalent of YouTube) for 'Russia Dash Cam crash and find thousands of videos
• Dash Cams capture more than just crashes, some funny, some interesting

 After reading the article I thought it would not be a bad idea to have a Dash Cam in my vehicle for practical (car crashes, road rage) and impractical (you never know what you are going to see) reasons

Our own PI Sam has done a video to demonstrate how you can install your own inexpensive Dash Cam.

 Thank You PI Sam.
