Dude I didn't take the picture it's a dash cam my car has them in front and back that save to a micro SD card, they have them also on the rear view mirrors now so you can get a 360 degree view and it records like a flight recorder so you have your whole driving day recorded. All cars coming out are coming with camera's I can access my cars camera at work via my smartphone and view who's walking around it with audio. The future is here, now I don't know if I want a google non human driver car or cargo truck speeding by me at 65 MPH with no one at the wheel the thing blows a circuit and it plows right through some ones house or a school this already happened several times in Australia that uses them on the outback for long deliveries no driver in the middle of no where it was driving over people the truck had defective computer circuit, this technology is good as a copilot in case humans mess up or for fraction of the second avoidance but that's it for now. You can buy a dash cam for as little at $40 online.
www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/ - You can mod out your car, put in a couple of computers and all kinds of hardware - before car companies started putting computers in cars hobbyist were doing it that's where they got the idea, the big defective car companies then followed years later charging people for R&D research that was already completed by the hobbyist, and they all complain about Tesla, Tesla is the future and when they drop their car to $30,000 that's it for gas everyone will have solar panels on their house and be charging and driving for free.

I am just sayin, this reminded me of folks in Massachusetts I see driving to the mountains about to drive off the road. Don't get your panties in a bunch.

Dude look on Amazon you could order a cheap dashcam for under $50 that records front and back driving, I use speaker phone even when I'm not driving I already said NY State law says you can get a ticket for looking at your phone and driving. Think about it we wear dashcams on our helmets when we mountain bike why not on the road if there is a issue there is video evidence of what happened.

OK Anywayyy...I'm a HUGE fan of the drive upstate (went to college in Binghamton and grad school in Albany so I got to drive 2 of the most beautiful routes in NY State rt. 17 and i87 and I totally agree that this is a drive worth window-watching, as long as you are not the driver lol I tend to "get off the road" a bit when coming from downstate ny (NYC here) and usually exit around New Paltz and take the paths through the mountains to get there, but thats just me
